Nine Banded Armadillos are the only species of armadillo in Georgia. They are considered exotic and invasive pests.

Pretty sure a coyote got this armadillo. Turkey vultures and black vultures picked it clean.

Thank you Forest Dragon. I don't have great service out here and can't multitask uploading and researching scientific names and such. I've been trying to go back when I have time to research scientific names and some of my unknowns. Thanks for the help :) especially with the sea critters, I don't know much about them.

I have moved this to the Mammals section. Since you know the identity of the remains of this animal, please add the scientific name to make your spotting complete. :-)
