Jacob Landry was born on December 27, 1983, in Pierre Part, Louisiana, located near the Atchafalaya River Basin—one of the most ecologically rich and challenging swamp regions in the United States. Raised in this rugged environment, Landry developed a deep understanding of and respect for nature from an early age. Navigating the dense swamplands became second nature to him, helping forge skills that would later define both his livelihood and public persona.
The outdoors, particularly the swamps of southern Louisiana, were more than a backdrop to Landry's upbringing—they shaped his future. His early exposure to the hazards and nuances of swamp life prepared him for a unique career path that would eventually take him from the bayou to national television.
Jacob Landry began hunting alligators as a young boy, learning the necessary skills from his father, Troy Landry, a seasoned alligator hunter and one of the original stars of the popular reality TV series Swamp People. Jacob's proficiency and comfort in the waterlogged terrain made him well-suited for the demanding and dangerous pursuit of alligator hunting.
He officially joined the cast of the History Channel's Swamp People in 2010, not 2015 as previously stated. As a core member of the show, Landry quickly became a fan favorite because of his composure under pressure, his seasoned expertise, and his natural charisma on camera. The series, which documents the lives of Louisiana alligator hunters during hunting season, helped elevate Jacob's public profile and solidify his place in the world of reality television.
The show's success contributed significantly to Landry's career and public recognition, allowing him to expand into other areas of the entertainment industry.
In addition to his reality TV presence, Jacob Landry has explored roles behind and in front of the camera in various entertainment projects. He appeared in the 2013 film The Queen and in the 2015 supernatural thriller Paranormal Extremes: Messages from the Dead. His involvement has extended to assistant directing as well, showcasing a broader range of talents within the industry beyond reality TV.
Jacob Landry married Lyndsi Landry on August 7, 2009. The couple shares a strong bond and are parents to two sons. Jacob comes from a close-knit family rooted in Louisiana, which includes his father, Troy Landry, and his two brothers, Brandon and Chase Landry. Like Jacob, his brothers have also been involved in alligator hunting, occasionally appearing alongside him on Swamp People.
Landry continues to blend his love for the outdoors with his work in television, maintaining a lifestyle that reflects both his heritage and his professional ambitions.
