Brady Barr is an American herpetologist. He studies snakes, crocodiles, lizards and other
reptiles. He is currently filming wildlife documentaries about the world’s largest and
scariest reptiles. After capturing them, Brady takes blood and tissue samples to analyze
them and then he releases the animals back into their natural habitat.
Brady admits that filming his show keeps him so busy that he doesn't always have
enough time to do the necessary follow-up studies. For this reason, he works with a team of
scientists who continue the work and publish the results of his research. As for retirement,
the Gator Doc - the 'alligator doctor as they call him - says: "I don't know how much longer
I can keep on doing this work. The snakes and crocs are getting younger and faster!"
