1.20.80, the release of Armored Paws, is a drop for Bedrock Edition, released on April 23, 2024.^[1][2][3] It fixes bugs and makes armadillos and wolf armor available in normal gameplay, removing their experimental toggle. It also adds more features under the Update 1.21 experiment, with the mace, heavy core and breeze rod.

👁 Image
Armadillo Scute

• Dropped by armadillos periodically and when brushed.
• Dispensers can be used to brush armadillo scutes off armadillos.
• Can be used to craft and repair wolf armor.

Spawn Egg

• 👁 Image
  Added armadillo spawn eggs.

👁 Image
Wolf Armor

• Crafted with 6 armadillo scutes in a harness shape.
• Protects wolves from most damage sources until the armor loses all durability and breaks.
  • Provides an armor value of 11 (👁 🛡
     × 5.5).
• Shows signs of increased breakage as durability goes down.
• Using wolf armor on an adult tamed wolf will equip the armor on the wolf, and using shears will make it drop the armor.
  • Only a wolf's owner can put on / shear off wolf armor. That also excludes dispensers.
• The wolf's owner can repair the armor with armadillo scutes while it is equipped on the wolf.
• If a wolf dies while wearing armor, it will drop the armor.
• Wolf armor can be dyed in similar fashion to leather armor.

👁 Image
Armadillo

• The winner of Minecraft Live 2023's Mob Vote.
• A passive mob that spawns in savanna and badlands biomes with the same frequency as chickens and pigs.
• Has 12HP👁 ❤️
  × 6 health points.
• Can drop armadillo scutes either periodically or when brushed, but drops no loot when killed.
  • Armadillos drop scutes at around the same rate as chickens lay eggs.
  • Brushing takes 16 durability from the brush.
• Can be bred with spider eyes.
• If an armadillo detects a threat, it will roll up.
  • Threats include:
    • A player sprinting.
    • A player in a vehicle or mounted.
    • Anyone it has been attacked by recently.
    • Undead mobs.
  • Special cases where an armadillo will not roll up include when it is:
    • Fleeing.
    • In water or in the air.
    • On a leash.
  • When an armadillo is rolled up it cannot walk nor eat, and will not be tempted by food. Additionally, it will be protected by its shell, causing it to take reduced damage and completely negating damage from weaker attacks.
  • While rolled up, armadillo continuously scans for threats. If no threats are detected for 3 seconds, it unrolls. Armadillos peek out to see if “the coast is clear” before unrolling.

Wolf

• Added variants of wolves.
