| has gloss | eng: Armour (or armor, see spelling differences) in animals is external or superficial protection against attack by predators, formed as part of the body (rather than the behavioural use of protective external objects), usually through the hardening of body tissues, outgrowths or secretions. It has therefore mostly developed in prey species. Armoured structures are usually composed of hardened mineral deposits, chitin, bone or keratin. |

| has gloss | deu: Ein Knochenpanzer ist eine besondere Form des Aufbaus der äußeren Haut, wie sie bei Schildkröten und Krokodilen zu finden ist. Bei diesen Tieren ist die Haut durch flache Knochenplatten verstärkt, den so genannten Osteodermen. Diese können, wie bei den Krokodilen, in die Haut eingelagert und von ihr überwachsen sein oder, wie bei den meisten Schildkröten, direkt die äußere Umhüllung darstellen. |

| has gloss | fra: Une armure chez les animaux est une protection externe ou superficielle contre les attaques des prédateurs, formée comme partie du corps (plutôt quun usage comportemental dobjets externes protecteurs), habituellement au moyen dun durcissement des tissus corporels, dexcroissances ou de sécrétions. Elle a donc été la plupart du temps développée chez les espèces « proies ». Ces structures blindées sont en général composées de dépôts minéraux durcis, de chitine, d’os ou de kératine. |
