What is the plot of 'Swamp People' Season 15?

The plot isn't as simple as it seems. Alligator season in Louisiana begins on the first Wednesday in September and lasts for 30 days.

In this season, alligator hunters following an age-old custom dating 300 years back, earn their yearly income.

This is an extremely risky occupation dependent on the experience of the weather within strict regulation of wildlife laws.

Hunters are each issued a certain number of tags that are attached to their kills.

Once they 'tag out', their season is over, and they may no longer kill any more alligators for the rest of the period. 

Many hunters earn most of the family income in these 30 days. The ultimate goal of the alligator hunters is to tag before the season ends.

Many hunters spend the rest of the years harvesting other species to increase their yearly income. 

Each season, the series focuses on different teams of alligator hunters, and each episode features the social, economic, and geographic aspects of their lives.
