Animal Planet’s Gator Boys describes itself as:
“[…] the death-defying exploits of Paul Bedard and Jimmy Riffle , two extraordinary alligator trappers who risk injury and death to hand capture nuisance alligators that have invaded the backyards, swimming pools, garages and bedrooms of Florida Everglades residents.”
So they try and use the most humane techniques possible to capture gators so they don’t do harm to the gators and the gators can’t do harm to others.
In the above clip they show that not only boys can be gator handlers… there are gator girls too!
