Nutria is a species of rodent similar to the muskrat. The species is endemic to South America and was imported in the US by E. A. McIlhenny (Tabasco sauce maker). He thought it would be a source of revenue for fur trappers. However, the pelt of the Nutria is not prized as a valuable fur and has little commercial value.

The Louisiana state tree is the bald cypress (Taxodium distichum). It is a large, long-lived tree commonly found in wetland areas and is known for its distinctive knobby projections on its roots called cypress knees.
The type of tree you are referring to is likely a Bald Cypress tree. These trees have unique "knees" that protrude from the ground around the tree, resembling stumps. These structures are believed to help with oxygenation of the roots.
Bald cypress trees can live for over 600 years, with some specimens reaching up to 1,000 years old. Their longevity is due to their ability to adapt to various environmental conditions and their resilience against diseases.
Bald Cypress has sap in its cones, but nearly absent from the wood; it does not bleed when cut. The cones can be pulled apart easily, each cone houses about 3 or 4 sacs filled with about a mL of cypress sap each. The sap is hardly as viscous as other conifers, it's rather liquidy and sinks almost immediately into your skin and stains yellow!
