Armadillos have a number of predators but the greatest enemy of armadillos is the human. Man is responsible for destroying the armadillos' habitat, hunts and kills them for food or sport, drives motor vehicles that strike and kill the animals.

Humans and automobiles probably kill more armadillos than any other cause.


Armadillos have few wild predators, but coyotes, dogs, black bears, bobcats, cougars, foxes and raccoons are reported to catch and kill armadillos in places where these predators occur. Hawks, owls and feral pigs may prey on armadillo young.
