I have noted 2 dead armadillos on I-65 North in Robertson Co at the Cross 
Plains/Gallatin Hwy 25 Exit.  These were noted about a year ago and and 
different time intervals ~ 3 months apart.    I grew up in Texas, since they 
are primarily nocturnal,  unfortunately they are typically noted as road kill.
