Mardi Gras-a carnival held in some countries on Shrove Tuesday (the last day before Lent) but especially in New Orleans.
Bottleneck effect is when there's something that either kills the majority of the population or just prevents it from reproducing. This creates genetic drift because the likelihood of gene prominence changing is much higher in a small population. The Founder Effect is a type of Bottleneck effect. It is when a small amount of individuals starts a population usually due to migration.
This article is a good article explaining how the founder effects affect genetic drift. An example of a bottleneck effect: Northern elephant seals have reduced genetic variation most likely due to being hunted. Hunting reduced their population size to as few as 20 individuals at the end if the 19th century.
