Oh, Louisiana. That is where I met a crazy swamp beast that scared the hell out of me. It turns out, it was a Nutria and similar to this frog deal. They were supposed to be a profitable critter to raise but they aren't. No, the one I met crawled out of a swamp, covered in slime, and ate a rotten fish - while staring me down.

It did not look even remotely tasty or like I might want to wear its fur. I can't imagine what people were thinking, kind of like these frogs. Frogs are handy for catching food, however. I am not sure if even gators eat the nutria. They are now an invasive pest species. They look worse when they are covered in swamp slime.
