Wild Croc Territory: Who is Matt Wright’s wife and what does she do?
Crocodile wrangler Matt Wright is back with a new series Wild Croc Territory on Netflix featuring his wife and son.
Matt Wright is bringing his new nail-biting Wild Croc Territory wildlife series to Netflix but as fans prepare to follow him and his family around the Northern Territory of Australia, some are asking who is Matt Wright's wife and what does she do?
If you love to see wildlife up close on shows like Frozen Planet II and Animal Park, Matt Wright has teamed up with his fearless crocodile wranglers to catch and relocate some of world's most ferocious reptiles in Australia's wild Outback.
With his wife Kaia and son Banjo, chopper pilot Matt heads into the untamed haven for wildlife, including over 150,000 saltwater crocodiles. Relocating crocs is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. And when things go bad, Matt needs a team he can trust with his life.
The much-talked about new series premieres on Netflix on 12th October and as fans stream the full series, we look at all you need to know about his wife...
