Armadillos
DLH:
I swear I’ve thought I have seen them along I65 in Kentucky between bowling Green and the Cumberland parkway. I can’t be for sure though since I didn’t stop and check them out.
looper:
Someone ran over an armadillo just up the road from my house. I'm only about 15 air miles south of Pat.
Pappy:
Got lots of them here in Mid Tennessee now, just showed up the last 4 or 5 years but seems the population is growing fast. See them up side down on the road all the time. :) Other than that haven't really seen much damage from them yet. :)

Everybody always mention the leprosy issue with 'dillos. The thing is, leprosy is not contagious. We've been catching and eating them in Florida for as long as I can remember. taste like pork.

I've been wondering about that a little the last few years. I heard the bit about them carrying leprosy as a boy and took it for gospel. Eventually I realized that there were too many folks that eat them for it to be a major concern
