Hello todays blog. I am finally back in my hotel room at Fort Clark Springs. It's an actual old fort, awesome. We had a great day trapping this morning with Trapper(his given name) and his guys. Now I'm downloading footage and sitting here all clean. I felt like I had half of Mexico's dirt and dust on me.
We are just outside of Del Rio on a ranch that is 60,000+ acres. It borders the Rio Grande. there was several times we ended up near the banks. That is a beautiful river. I can see why people want to swim it. lol
It has been the most exciting week for me watching Trapper, Kevin, Cam, Andrew, Chris the pilot and Pat the pilot handle these animals with care. The pilots are fearless. Flying right at the tops of the trees, dropping in to where the animals are holding tight, flushing them out to be netted by the net gunner.
This net gun is very dangerous in it's own right, just ask Trey Trammell he has the scars to prove it.
The chase guys on the ground are very quick to get to the netted animal and get them loose and hobble them and put a blindfold on the animals. these guys are more concerned about the animals stress level then you can imagine. It is all about moving the animals with as little stress as possible. Today in one small area we found 6 difference carcasses. These animals have to be moved to land with more resources and food and water so they can survive.
This will make for one of the most exciting action TV shows you're going to see. Much better then the canned hunts on some Hogger show with penned hogs they let loose to just catch them again.
There will be a couple of months for post production then pitch the pilot to networks that have expressed a desire to air.
I'll keep you posted.
