Armadillo Scutes

• Can be used to craft Wolf Armor
• Dropped by Armadillos
• Dispensers can be used to brush Armadillo Scutes off Armadillos

Wolf Armor

• Using Wolf Armor on an adult tamed Wolf will equip the armor on the Wolf
• Only a Wolf's owner can put Wolf Armor on their tamed Wolf, and with this in mind, Dispensers cannot put Wolf Armor on Wolves
• Using Shears on a Wolf that is wearing armor will make it drop the armor
• Only a Wolf's owner can shear a Wolf Armor from it, and with this in mind, Dispensers cannot remove Wolf Armor from Wolves
• Wolf Armor gives the same protection as Diamond Horse Armor
