| St. Mary's Nativity School asks: How much of Grand Isle has been lost over the years due to hurricanes, etc.? CC answers: Most barrier islands move and change over time. The currents in Louisiana move sand from the west toward the east end of Grand Isle. When there is no new sand to be moved, the island loses land. I will have to research exactly how much land Grand Isle has lost in modern history due to hurricanes and get back to you. |

| L.J. Alleman Middle School asks: Do you fish or trap for animals to use for food while you are living in the basin? What is the most common snake that you see in the basin? CC answers: Sue caught Redfish two times last week and cooked them for me. The recipe will be up on the Recipe Page under Lagniappe, soon. We have not trapped anything yet. Once we reach the Atchafalaya Basin we may try to trap a few crawfish.
Most snakes I see livein the Atchafalaya Basin. The one I see the most there is the Broad-banned water snake (Nerodia fasciata confluens). |
