When we left the house I said "Dylan, lets go COONhunting". I guess he must have misunderstood. lol
Just wanted to share the picture. I thought the black background made it kinda unique. This is the second lion I've treed at this spot in the last month and haven't treed a single coon. Makes me wonder if the lion are eating the coon.

Oh Man!
That's a GORGEOUS picture! I would LOVE to see that some day...if I'm surrounded by hounds and gun toting humans... since I'd be a tiny bit scared but I Really want to go on a lion hunt someday...what a sight. That's a beautiful picture. Hope you find a coon soon!

Like we always say Travis, if they're going to trash they'd better do it well. lol
We treed the cat behind one of the ranch hands house. He came out and took the picture. I don't know what kind of camera he had but it was a big sucker. Looked like it should have come with a trailer to pack it around with.

The ranch hand might look into a career as a wildlife photographer! Let him know that it is fantastic!

Bill,
That is not a problem, lol. Now when you go bear hunting and walk 4 miles in the pooring rain up and down the mtns into a tree and see a **** coon or bobcat sitting there; THAT is a problem A bear or a lion in a tree is NEVER a problem
Awesome pic!!!

I thought I recognized the name. I lived in Ranchester growing up, ran hounds with Brent Switzer and Hank Scobee- I think I met you at Marosocks house one time. Anyway, glad to see someone in the area is still running coon hounds!
I have NEVER figured out why a cat of that size runs up a tree when a 50# dog is chasing him. LOL Seems to me that he would turn around and take care of business! Those teeth and claws would certainly leave a mark.
Again, GREAT PICTURE!
