North Louisiana Wildlife

Follow Us through the Forests and Wetlands

We created this site to share our favorite North Louisiana places and animals with you. If you’re like us, you may be surprised to learn that nearly 10,000 animal species live in or travel through North Louisiana. To clarify, at least 8,000 of those species are bugs. Another nearly 500 bird species are located in Louisiana during part of the year. Around 50 species of mammals and reptiles live in our area, while around 30 species of amphibians and fish live here.

While the site’s not a complete compendium of north Louisiana’s inhabitants yet, we’ve published more than 150 pages of content. Another 150 pages are scheduled for publication by the end of the year. You can learn about amphibians, birds, bugs, fish, mammals, reptiles, and the places you can find them here.

Hang around and learn more about north Louisiana wildlife, or check out our reviews of the area’s national wildlife refuges (NWRs), wildlife management areas (WMAs), parks, and national heritage sites. Hopefully, this site will help you whether you want to identify some of our wild friends and understand their roles in our ecosystem or figure out where you want to spend your Saturday.

North Louisiana Wildlife Photography Code

North Louisiana Wildlife is dedicated to the well-being of our wild neighbors. While we enjoy getting a well-framed photo, the safety of the animals that we’re visiting is always our top priority. To that end, we do our best to follow the rules of ethical wildlife observation and photography as defined by the Audubon Society and the North American Nature Photography Association.
