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 a
nd/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.

Three days remain in this gator hunting season, and the hunters are working hard
under pressure to tag out in time. Troy and Clint, who have 45 tags of their own

challenge when the gators just steal their bait and leave, leading Rebel to create
a solution to keep the gators where they are when they take the bait. R.J. and
Jay Paul continue to work hard to tag out in their 500-tag season, but the hard
work is taking a toll on R.J. mentally and physically, leading to Jay Paul to help
his dad accomplish his goal. Joe and Tommy hunt a large gator they call "Fat Cat",
but the gator eludes all efforts to be caught. leading to Joe using the
"shake and bake" method. And Glenn and Mitchell fish for gar and gives some of their
smoked catch to their sister, Tonya, on the condition that she cooks them some turtle
stew, using the turtles that they caught. But it is a task that becomes impossible
when Tonya found out that the turtles were snapping turtles.
