The triangle-shaped piece of land at the mouth of the Mississippi River is called a delta, specifically the Mississippi River Delta. This area is formed by sediment deposition as the river flows into the Gulf of Mexico, creating a rich ecosystem and a complex network of waterways. The delta is known for its biodiversity and is an essential region for both wildlife and human activities.
