Every Christmas Eve, 100’s of wooden bonfires line the Mississippi River levees in St. One of the oldest holiday traditions in the U.S. Guided swamp tours are led by ambassadors of our land and the lakes and marshes provide you with a fully immersive and eco-educational experience. Out here you will see alligators sunbathing and egrets perched on logs as you kayak or canoe Manchac Swamp. Cajuns, Creoles, and Native Americans have respected and protected these lands for centuries, and they have continued to remain a cornerstone of our culture.
Des Allemandes” (al-uh-mandz) translates in French to mean “the Germans”, it was one of the original German settlements established in 1721.Ī harmonious balance has been created between the swamp eco-system, wildlife, and locals who call the River Parishes home. Located about an hour outside of the city of New Orleans, Lac Des Allemands and Bayou Des Allemands are home to some of the best catfish and crabs in South Louisiana.

She also works closely with Linda Fedigan and Fernando Campos on tracking the long-term impacts of forest protection, forest regeneration, and climate change on the howler and capuchin populations within Santa Rosa.Louisiana’s River Parishes created the River Reel Series to showcase the unique culture found in the River Parishes. Kathy’s research, which incorporates behavioral, demographic, genetic, and hormone data, focuses on life history patterns, dispersal, and reproductive strategies in male white-faced capuchins. After a three-year stint studying Cebus albifrons in coastal Ecuador, Kathy returned to Costa Rica in 2005 to take up the role of co-director of the Santa Rosa Primate Project with Linda (they were joined by Amanda Melin in 2011). In 2003, Kathy moved to Tulane University, where she currently holds the title of Professor of Anthropology and Director of Environmental Studies. In 2001, just months after completing her doctorate in Anthropology, Kathy took up a faculty position at Appalachian State University in Boone, North Caroline. In 1997, she joined the doctoral program at the University of Alberta, where, under the guidance of Linda Fedigan, she studied male life history patterns in white-faced capuchins in Santa Rosa National Park in Costa Rica. For her Master’s research, Kathy studied the behavior of peripheral male Japanese macaques during the mating season at the Arashiyama West site in south Texas, where Mary Pavelka first introduced her to Linda Fedigan. Katharine (Kathy) Jack completed her MA (1995, under Mary Pavelka) and BSc (1992) at the University of Calgary. Chapman at McGill University, where he is continuing his research on the social behavior of female primates, primate adaptations to changing environments, and primate ecology and conservation. In 2017, Kalbitzer began a postdoctoral fellowship with Colin A. His fellowship in Calgary led to his collaborating with other primatologists within the department in studying the variety of species (including Old World monkeys, New World monkeys, and lemurs), and how primates rapidly adapt to changing environments. After receiving his PhD, he began a postdoctoral fellowship with Linda Fedigan in the Department of Anthropology and Archeology at the University of Calgary to examine the benefits and costs of female sociality in the Santa Rosa capuchin monkeys. For his PhD thesis, he investigated behavioral, hormonal, and genetic differences among several species of baboon. He completed his Diploma (which is equivalent to both a Bachelor of Science and Masters degree) in biology in 2008, and his PhD in 2014 at the German Primate Center (DPZ) and the University of Göttingen, Germany. Urs Kalbitzer's interests include increasing his understanding of behavioral plasticity and the evolution of primate sociality by studying the variation in behavior, life-histories, hormones, genetics, and ecology between species.
