Outback Hunters
Description: History takes a page from its own "Swamp People" and goes Down Under to document the work of crocodile hunters in the Northern Territory of Australia. In a treacherous terrain known as the Top End, the crocs outnumber humans three to one, and once Australia's dry season kicks in, the beasts are on the move, coming into close contact with civilians and livestock. That's when the hunters earn their keep, risking their lives to protect others by using hand-thrown harpoons to corral the 2,000-pound reptiles. The hunters include Paul Henwood, who has access to hunting grounds others don't because he's part Aborigine, and Tommy Nichols, a government ranger whose job mainly involves the harpooning and trapping of crocodiles that are infiltrating major waterways.
