We attempt to point out the relation between Killing-Yano tensors and non-standard supersymmetries. The Killing-Yano tensors play an important role in the Dirac theory on curved spaces where they produce Dirac-type operators. The Euclidean Taub-NUT space is taken to illustrate some of the aspects of the general discussion about the connection between spacetime higher order geometrical symmetries and supersymmetries. The dynamical symmetry of this space leads in a natural way to an infinite dimensional twisted loop superalgebra of the conserved operators.
