Once the land of the Cajun people, known for shrimp fishing, it also evokes memories of the cotton plantations during the era of slavery. Today, the area has inspired many film and animation creators. For instance, Disney animations have drawn themes from the Louisiana wetlands to produce beloved works such as *The Princess and the Frog*, *The Princess and the Frog*, *Interview with the Vampire*, and *Beasts of the Southern Wild*.
