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.

S03E08 - Rising Waters
Original Air-date: April 5, 2012

As Tropical Storm Lee gets closer to the Louisiana coast, the hunters rush to complete their hunt and get
home safely before the storm arrives; not only do they fear for the safety of themselves and their loved
ones, they also fear for an early end to gator season, due to the colder waters storms bring. Troy and Clint
race across Lake Verret in hopes of catching more gators on the other side, but the high winds, waves and
rain may sink their boat and leave them stranded in the middle of the lake. Jacob continues the hunt as well,
but finds himself short-handed without Chase, who was recovering at home after getting a hook stuck in his
foot. Bruce and Ron explore uncharted territory when high waters flood the surrounding land, but when they
caught a yellow gator, they also caught a bad superstition, as they found themselves dodging sunken trunks,
a tornado and venomous insects, on top of getting lost. Austyn and Blake continue the gator hunt for their
buyer, and finds a gator that meets his expectations, however, in order to shoot it, they must step on a huge
fire ant hill. And Joe and Tommy race to run their lines before the storm comes in, but the longer they stay
out, the less chance they will make it back alive, and when they do, they still had to get their place and
their families ready for the storm.
