Watched one fall over 30 feet one night. Luckily she wasn't hurt but I hunt her with a shock collar. She still climbs a little but not when she sees me coming!

I had a big male 15 yrs ago that was about 40 to 50 feet up. He slipped and never climbed again. I can still here that sickening sound when he hit the ground.

I had a big 85+ pound Walker male about 10 years ago fall from about 20 feet out of a live oak tree. when he hit he came straight to me and leaned against my legs. i took him home checked for broken bones and felt none but he was dead the next morning. i figured he probably had internal injuries. That was the first and last tree climber i have ever had.
