We often get questions about armadillos and leprosy. Let’s debunk! While about 16% of armadillos in Florida carry the bacteria that causes leprosy, transmission to humans is rare. Out of the 200-250 new leprosy cases the US sees each year, most are linked to international travel. However, anyone attempting to rescue any wild animal should wear gloves.
