Armadillos generally have a relatively slow growth rate. After birth, young armadillos, known as pups, are typically weaned at around 2-3 months and reach sexual maturity by about one year of age. Their growth can be influenced by factors such as diet and environmental conditions, but they usually grow steadily during their first year before reaching full size, which can vary depending on the species. The average lifespan of an armadillo is around 4-7 years in the wild.
