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.
The only natural predators of the armadillo are southern big cats. However, when scared, an armadillo will jump into the air. When the "predator" is a car, the armadillo becomes roadkill, rather than being saved.
Depending upon your beliefs, either God or evolution gave the armadillo a shell to protect itself from predators.

Armadillo
An armadillo shell, much like the shell of any other animal that has a shell, makes it harder for predators to harm the animal.
An armadillo needs its shell to camouflage itself from predators like acoyote. When an armadillo rolls up into a ball, it looks like a rock because of its hard shell.
Such predators as bobcats, cougars, wolves, bears, raccoons and even some of the larger hawks and other birds of prey will attack and devour an armadillo.
To protect itself from predators. To shield its soft underbelly from its attackers.
