R.J. said he was once “nicked” on the finger by an alligator, splitting his finger wide open. Through 36 years of alligator hunting, he has never been bitten. “Thank God,” he said. R.J. said he often tells people that an alligator is like a motorcycle: if you don’t respect it, it’ll bite you. The father and son team just wrapped up the September season of alligator hunting and filming. Jay Paul said he is ready for the break from hunting, but they aren’t slowing down. “We are on the road every week in a different state,” he said. Jay Paul said this year’s season was the worst and the best, but they weren’t allowed to reveal too much. “It was good for us,” he said. R.J. said the team had to dig deep to fill their alloted tags. A rookie hunter wouldn’t have been able to do it, he said. Houma Native Americans, R.J. and Jay Paul said it’s a blessing to be able to share their culture with the world. Skills to live off the land, like alligator hunting, have been passed down for generations in the Houma Nation. “A lot of people don’t even know we still do this,” Jay Paul said. R.J. said it was good that the History Channel decid- ed to do a story on the Houma to show the world that alligator hunting still exists today. “There are 18,000 of us left on the coast,” he said. Donald Hollingsworth Sr. said he took his grandsons, who are huge fans of the show, to meet the stars as a way to support the good work Kiwanis does for local children. Photos by LAURA HAMPSON/Lake City Reporter “I thought it was like, really cool,” said Donald Hollingsworth III, after meeting the stars. Several fans said they liked R.J. and Jay Paul for their hardworking, down-to-earth personality.
