The exotic invasive nutria (Myocastor coypus) are so populous, they get their own website! If you want to read about the history of coypu in Louisiana and how you can help reduce their populations, check out the website below. If you visit Turtle Cove, you may even see one of these critters!

The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is charged with the responsibility of managing and protecting Louisiana's abundant natural resources.
