Fishermen in Saint Bernard Parish affected by the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Thomas gator, 72, feeds the feral cats outside his home on Delacroix Island, LA August 31, 2010. Last week he finished crabbing because the price dropped to $1.25 for the 1's and it wasn't worth the bait and gas to continue. Thomas is one of the only Delacroix fishermen not working for BP.
