The Armored Paw update in Minecraft brings a cute new species to the game, Armadillos, which drop materials to craft high-quality armor for your wolf. Here is the fastest way to find Armadillos in Minecraft.
The Quickest Way to Find Armadillos in Minecraft
The quickest way to find Armadillos in the new Minecraft Armored Paws update is by navigating the Badlands and Savanna Biomes. You will find plenty of Armadillos roaming the area in these two biomes.
However, when approaching them you will need to be careful as they will get scared if you approach them while sprinting. They will curl into their shell if they feel threatened by anything, including other hostile mobs.
The right way to approach an Armadillo is by slowly walking towards it or by crouching towards it.
How to Tame Armadillos in Minecraft
To tame an Armadillo in Minecraft, you can use its favorite food, Spider Eyes, to make it follow to your home. You can get spider eyes by killing spiders, but there is a one in three chance that it will drop the eyes.
However, if you do get your hands on spider eyes, you can lure the Armadillos to your home. You can even breed two of them by feeding them the spider eyes to make a baby.
What do Armadillos Drop in Minecraft?
Armadillos drop scutes, an item that is used to create armor for your pet wolf. If you are looking to take your pet with you on your adventures, then you should look into crafting a Wolf Armor with the help of scutes. It guarantees the safety of your companion with a defensive buff as good as that of Diamond Horse armor.
To equip the armor on your pet wolf, simply walk up to it and press the right-click or secondary action button. If you are looking to get a pet wolf for yourself, then you should look into our How to Tame a Wolf in Minecraft guide.
