I had one that would trail a coon through an apple orchard, climbing trees, dropping off the end of a limb, climbing the next tree, etc. It was slow going, and he often started trails too cold to catch up to the coon that way. It was a sight to watch! He never hurt himself. He seemed to have an instinct for dropping off the limb into water, uphill, through branches that slowed his fall, etc. Occasionally he used me to break his fall. He never caught a coon in the tree, but he did once catch one on a tree stand that wasn't big enough for a fight. That coon ran across him and down the ladder...
