Guardians of the Glades

Dusty Crum and his team of snake hunters devise a plan to stop Florida's invasive pythons from spreading north and becoming a national emergency.

While Dusty and the team stave off the spreading invasion by creating a "tourniquet" at the Stormwater Treatment Areas, Gary lobbies to go down south and hunt for a new record-breaker.

Dusty and the team must capture a giant calf-eating snake and venture into an abandoned factory to save upper Florida from invasive pythons.

Dusty and the team trek deep into an abandoned housing development where pythons are killing wildlife. But when Dusty injures his foot on the hunt and is forced to turn back alone, he comes face to face with a monster snake.

To stop pythons from establishing new breeding colonies, the team hunts in the Florida Keys, and Dusty tries to recruit the next generation of snake hunters.

The team targets islands off of Snake Bight Bay to prevent snakes from destroying Southern Florida, and Brittany plans her own hunt for the first time, but it may be more than she bargained for.

Dropping temperatures force Dusty and the team to change hunting strategies, but a run-in with his old rival Cowboy throws the team off the trail.

Winter's arrival drives mating pythons underground, forcing the team to target a network of dangerous tunnels and pull the pythons out by any means necessary.

Dusty and his team of expert snake hunters expose the five unwritten rules of python hunting and look ahead to the bigger stakes and bolder snakes in their future.

The first four days of the 2020 Python Bowl kick off with incredible snake captures. The snake hunts feature fierce competition, including Dusty Crum, Python Cowboy, Jimbo McCartney, Donna Kalil and rookie Brittany Borges.

It's a race to the end of the competition as Donna, Dusty and Cowboy are neck and neck. Swamp Apes Tom Rahill and Tom Aycock fight a different battle, to help veterans heal by hunting snakes. Lindsey and Dan Floyd find an astonishing nest of pythons.
