MUMBAI: Infotainment broadcaster Discovery will kick off the show 'Gator Boys' on 19 November at 10 pm.

Gator Boys involves the death-defying exploits of Paul Bedard and Jimmy Riffle, two alligator trappers who risk injury and death to hand-capture nuisance alligators that have invaded the back yards, swimming pools, garages and bedrooms of Florida Everglades residents.

Bedard and Riffle are two fearless enthusiasts and they’ve become Florida’s most dependable guys when local residents find themselves crossing paths with deadly 1,000-pound reptiles in shocking locations. The goal of Gator Boys’ Alligator Rescue Team is to capture nuisance gators with their bare hands and move them to safety before rival trappers, who kill and sell the animals for their skin and meat, get to them. Viewers will follow every crazy adventure and sticky situation these death-defying partners encounter.


Alligators are Florida’s ultimate predator. Alligators used to be present in abundance in South Florida, with the Everglades stretching as far as the eye could see, but times have changed; today there’s an on-going struggle between man and beast. These reptiles can easily flatter your skull, crush your head, break your neck or drown you.

The 'Gator Boys' get to action, defending blameless gators and other wildlife displaced by urban sprawl and keeping people safe from these unpredictable animals. With 30 years of wild-animal experience between them, the guys run an animal facility in the Everglades, where they educate and entertain the public using a menagerie of ferocious creatures they’ve captured in populated areas.


It takes serious skill to do this guy’s job, and Paul is known for his personality and expertise, capturing any-sized gator underwater with his bare hands. He’s a record-breaking triathlete who spends his off season heading up “Gator Boys Alligator Rescue” side by side with Jimmy. Despite brother-like bickering between the two, Jimmy looks to Paul as a mentor since they met while Jimmy was alligator wrestling at
only 11-years-old! Paul is quick to tell anyone that today, “Jimmy is the best gator wrestler in the world.”

Viewers will see Paul and Jimmy hard at work, rescuing and wrangling gators from unlikely places and saving people from many precarious situations.
