Synopsis

Billie Swamp Safari is the Seminole Tribe of Florida's 2200-acre wildlife park, on the edge of the Everglades. Their goal is to immerse visitors in the wild, while also sharing the Seminoles' story of harmony with nature. A visit to this swamp is best described as controlled chaos; complete with face-to-face encounters with wild alligators, venomous snakes, black bears, panthers and virtually every other native animal the swamp has to throw at them. To ensure a safe visit for his guests, the park's director, Ed Woods, has enlisted a tough group of characters. His edgy management style and the opportunity to work in one of the most dangerous professions on the planet have attracted a group of characters unparalleled in the business, each bringing their own unique skill set and passion to the job. But no matter how much experience these guys possess, this is the swamp, and nothing about their job is predictable!
