VOICED : Mascota del Mundial en peligro de extincion

The video discusses the armadillo, known as tatú bola, which was the mascot for the 2014 World Cup. Despite its popularity, the species is endangered due to hunting and habitat destruction in Brazil's Caatinga region. Named Fuleco, a blend of 'fútbol' and 'ecología', the mascot has not benefited from World Cup merchandising. Conservationists urge FIFA and the Brazilian government to protect the species by converting World Cup goals into protected land. The armadillo's unique defense mechanism is highlighted, and advocates hope its mascot status will aid in its conservation.
