Swamp People is an American reality/documentary television series that
was first broadcast on History on August 22, 2010. The show follows the
day-to-day activities for several Cajuns living in the Atchafalaya River
Basin swamp in Louisiana, USA who hunt American alligators for a living.

Alligator season in Louisiana begins on the first Wednesday in September
and lasts 30 days. In this time limit, many of the alligator hunters,
following a tradition dating back 300 years, earn most of their yearly
income in a high risk vocation dependent on experience and the whims of
weather within strict regulation by wildlife laws. Hunters are each issued
a certain number of tags that must be attached to their kills; once they
"tag out"(run out of tags), their season is over, and they may no longer
kill any more alligators the rest of the season. During this 30 day window,
some of these hunters earn most of their annual income culling alligators;
therefore, the ultimate goal for the alligator hunters is to tag out before
the season ends, with some tagging out in the final hours of the season,
and some saving the last tag for their prize catch,the biggest and
most-menacing alligator they can find. For seasoned hunters, alligator
season is the most exciting—and dangerous—time of the year. Most of the
hunters spend the rest of the year harvesting other species(fish,
crawfish, shrimp, crabs, raccoons, turtles,) to augment their yearly incomes
and/or holding down full-time jobs in other industries.





Each season, the series focuses on five teams of alligator hunters, with each
episode generally featuring three or four teams, as they hunt gator, being
subjected to the elements, and the viciousness of the alligators. Some episodes
also feature other aspects of the social and sporting life of the swamp,
including fishing and hunting for other animals, such as squirrel.

Original Air-date: Thursday May 31st, 2012

With one week to go in the gator season, it is more important than ever to catch
as many gators as they can. And with the demand on gator hides on the upswing,
the bigger the gator, the more money they can get. Troy and Clint go to a honey
hole where, five years earlier, Troy caught 80 gators in a single day, but present
conditions made entering and leaving the bayou difficult. Willy and Randy follow a
huge gator that had all but eluded their capture. R.J. and Jay Paul hunt down
"Gourmand", a huge rogue gator known to eat anything and everything, but not only
were all efforts to catch the gator seem futile, it also consumed their entire bait
supply for the day, leading to R.J. using a suitable substitute, his chicken sandwich.
And Austyn and Blake go hunting for gators for Troys buyer, but the gator they were
after has popped several of their lines. At the end of the day when they cash in,
they get some pointers on gator hunting from Troy himself.
