Troy Landry is known as an American professional alligator hunter. He is most famous for his reality TV show, Swamp People.

<h2>Background</h2>

Troy Adam Landry was born on September 6, 1960. Troy is the third generation of his family to have lived in the Louisiana Swamps. Troy’s proud parents, Duffy and Myrtle Landry occasionally make appearances on his Swamp People show. Duffy and Myrtle Landry now enjoy a blissful and happy life with their grandchildren and great-grandchildren. They continue to work and support themselves even though they are at the age when people start retiring.

<h2>Relationships</h2>

Troy is married to Bernita Landry, a woman who works as a school teacher. The married couple has two sons, Jacob and Chase Landry. Bernita is also a publicist for the History Channel. The clothes Troy wears are the result of his beautiful wife’s taste for attire and fashion. She is able to pin down the atheistic visual of the show by using her creativity to plan for Troy’s wardrobe. Troy can usually be seen wearing a Ralph Lauren striped polo shirt to hunt alligators since he considers them to be lucky in some way.

Troy and Bernita are happily married and live in an amazing house built of Cyprus wood. Troy enjoys cooking so much that he gave his wife her own kitchen. He does not want to invade her personal space with his Cajun style of cooking. Troy goes crazy in his own kitchen without having to worry about getting his wife’s kitchen dirty.

The home that the Landrys live in is very spacious and well planned with a huge 30 x 34ft family room. There are special displays of fourteen mounts of white-tailed deer along with the head of an 11 ft. alligator to catch the eye of visitors. Troy is a proud hunter and likes to show off his trophies.

The Landrys are very proud of how far they’ve come. They spent over 30 years of their married life in a trailer and take great pride in their new home. Troy has an estimated net worth of $650 million. He and Bernita enjoy the opportunity and financial resources to welcome their sons’ families and especially their three darling grandchildren to a cozy home.

<h2>Career</h2>

Troy Landry brought his work to the television screen and became a famous reality TV star in a series called Swamp People. The docudrama show airs on the History Channel. Swamp People has gained a lot of popularity among the television audience and has been on-air for more than nine seasons.

The premise of Troy’s show, Swamp People is to document Troy and his two sons as alligator hunters who follow a tradition dating back to around 300 years. The brave trio must catch, kill, and deliver as many alligators as possible to their buyer during the hunting season. It is important that they are successful in their mission since it is their main source of income for the entire year. There is very fierce competition that requires each hunter to have a variety of skills for a successful hunting season.

The practice of catching and killing alligators is a profession that has existed throughout history and is often passed from one generation to the next. New techniques are constantly discovered by the alligator hunters. These new ideas are used in combination with the tried and true techniques passed down from previous generations of hunters to ensure that each hunter catches the maximum number of alligators allowed. Troy himself is noted for having caught an impressive 82 gators in a single day. A feat like catching the 82 gators is what has given Troy a spot on TV.

Swamp People set TV rating records as people continued to tune in to see what the hunters would do on the show. The competition between hunters on the show is engaging and exciting. Alligator hunting in Louisiana is important to keep the gator population under control. The featured hunters seen on the show are just a fraction of the actual total number of hunters that participate in this centuries-old tradition.

Throughout the show we see Troy escape significant dangers, roam the swamps, and fill his boat with gators. We also see him setting records with some of the giant beasts he is able to catch. Despite the many dangers of the job, there have been no injuries with the exception of Mitchell Guist. Guist died on May 14, 2012 as a result of an accident on the Belle River near Pierre Part. According to authorities, he slipped and fell while loading items onto his boat. It was initially reported that he suffered a seizure, but it is unclear whether the seizure was a result of the fall or if it was caused by a medical condition.

Troy doesn’t seem to be in the least bit, affected by the danger that comes along with alligator hunting. In fact, as one watches Troy it often seems that the danger involved is part of what he enjoys about this occupation. It takes a brave and strong person to hunt alligators in the first place. The result, of course, is a successful TV show, filled with breathtaking scenes. Troy will continue to hunt alligators as long as the people keep watching.

<h2>Business Venture</h2>

Troy owns a service station at Pierre Part, Louisiana on State Highway 70. It is known as the “Duffy Shell Station” and was proudly named after his father, Duffy Landry. Troy also owns one of the largest crawfish harvesting companies in Louisiana. The reality TV show keeps him busy and happy and Troy can often be seen on the show bragging about being the "King of the Swamp".
