Armadillos are an established species in southern Illinois, but officials are now examining whether their territory is moving northward. The Department of Natural Resources is asking residents to report any sightings in the central and northern parts of Illinois, especially north of Springfield.
IDNR is also interested in receiving reports of large predators like gray wolves, cougars, or black bears, with multiple such sightings occurring in recent years.
