There is a state entity known as State Lands, and there is also of course the Louisiana Dept of Wildlife and Fisheries. When you look at land ownership on a map, occasionally you run across the owner as 'state lands'. These parcels vary in size, and they are scattered throughout the state. Some of them are little parcels that are surrounded by private land, but others are adjacent to water bodies or LDWF owned land so they are essentially public land that can be legally hunted by anyone with a state hunting license. The ones surrounded by private land are inaccessible to the public because you would have to cross through private land. State Lands owns these parcels. LDWF has a conservation fund with money available for conservation and acquiring property. Well, since LDWF has 'extra' money not being used now (just as the Rigs to Reefs did), the gov't wants/needs this money and they decided to sell these properties owned by State Lands to LDWF
They are both state agencies
