Animals sometimes struggle with simple tasks, and more often than not, it ends up in an adorable video. In this case, an armadillo was trying to climb up a ramp, but gravity got in his way.

From Mashable:

It’s not easy being an armadillo. Because armadillos, though cute, are not particularly graceful.

This little armadillo at the Mulhouse Zoo in France really just wants to climb up this ramp — but his slippery little hooves are proving to be a bit difficult. Every time he tries to walk up, he just ends up sliding right back down again. Eventually the little critter gives up and takes a different route in frustration.

Perhaps the “If at first you don’t succeed …” adage doesn’t really apply to armadillos.

You can watch the cute video below:

So cute! I hope he gets where he’s going one of these days.
