Descripción
We evaluated the effects of land use on the distribution of 3 sympatric species of armadillos, Chaetophractus villosus, C. vellerosus, and Dasypus hybridus, on 34 farms in the eastern Pampas. We characterized 4 soil and vegetation variables around each burrow located during surveys of these farms, and related burrow abundance to 10 variables used to characterize each farm. C. vellerosus was the most specialized, using primarily native woodlands and areas with calcareous soil. D. hybridus was associated with natural grasslands and avoided cultivated pastures, and was negatively related to the number of dogs that lived on the farms. C. villosus, the most abundant species, was found in all 4 types of habitats, but its distribution depended on the intensity of hunting on each farm.
