Jacob “Gator Man” Lirrette

Jacob Lirette has been wrestling and capturing gators for most of his 27 years. Known throughout the region as “The Gator Man,” Lirette is a third generation Alligator Nuisance Man, following in the footsteps of his grandfather and father by officially handling thousands of calls to locate, apprehend, remove and relocate alligators that show up in places they should not be. Lirette works hand-in-hand with the Terrebonne Sheriff’s department, which fields thousands of gator nuisance calls a year. Most days you can find him skillfully and safely serving the men, women, children and many of the pets of the parish, by keeping them separated from curious or hungry alligators.

Lirette is also the boyfriend of Deputy Melissa “Catfish” Quintal. Deputy Quintal says she’s attracted to masculine men and as far as she’s concerned, “The Gator Man” fits the bill. When he shows up on the scene in his boots, jeans and cowboy hat, with a determined look on his face, you know the gators don’t stand a chance.
