    There was a "zoo" out on Avery Island, where the family had a collection of animals... a hurricane damged the fences etc, and a few new species were introduced to the area.

    I do know that the family has spent a lot of money trying to deflect responsibility...

    But the version I know is that Nutria were bought to this region as part of a collection.

    Default UL Mascot

    On the USC board, someone asked what our mascot looked like (compared to their gamecock). One of our alums posted with a copy of Cayenne. The responses weren't very good, as you can see below. I tried to post a copy of Cayenne that was posted on their board, but couldn't copy it.

    Actually, they are correct. The mascot is hideous. I remember thinking the same thing seeing it on the sideline at the LSU game. It is a bad joke and UL is the brunt of the joke.

    Why can't we find something that will be appreciated by alumni, fans and visitors? We talked before about the Bullgator or the Catahoula (state dog). Either would be great and an enormous improvement over that joke of a mascot we have now. The pepper looks good on a cap as an accent to Ragin, but as a mascot, it just doesn't work.

    Geez, I cannot accept criticism about our pepper from people who refer to themselves as "cock fans". Now, that's a joke.

    Poo Poo Broussard would be a better mascot than Cayenne.

    I still say we should have kept the bulldog and just name him Ragin Cajun 1, 2, 3 and so on. We could put a fleur de lis around his collar or he could wear a sweater with our logo.

    Not anymore.

    When he was first released they had him/it running around naked with his back on fire. I don't know if that was pornographic or not but what ever it was, it was not a pretty sight.

    The clothed version we have now is a 100% improvement, but please let no one take that as an endorsement.

    ps I am a fan of the UL BullGator.

    How about a list of e-mails of those in charge (i.e. Authement, DW, Julie Dronet, Nelson Shexneyder, etc.) so we can send a link to this thread so that they know how much of an embarrassment that thing is and how a lot of people feel about it. We have the uniqueness of the fleur de lis to exploit and we throw a freaking pepper out there. I hate that freaking thing and every logo we have that has words or whatever else on fire. It looks so Bush League. Look at Troy or FAU. They have some really nice logos that actually look modern, classy, and professional, and then look at our crap. its so cartoonish. its ridiculous. how can we expect people to respect our wishes for what we want to be called, respect our athletics, respect our students, when we run that crap out there.

    What is wrong with this fleur de lis?

    loose the pepper. Loose the fire. Give us something that we can be proud of. We don't necessarilly need anything walking around the stadium for the kids, but I do like that bull gator, and it would be very cool to have that Catahoula looking over the players as they run out of the tunnel.

    So nice to see such a clear thinking Cajun Fan.

    Agree with everything you said except the bullgator.

    I'm a Catahoula man.

    Why do we insist on having a mascott? We should just have cheerleaders and conference title banners on the sidelines.

    It's not so much that we WANT or DEMAND a mascot. It's more about the fact that this unversity, when it comes to uniforms, emblems(pepper), and mascots(cayenne), chooses such a Bush League way of doing things.
