I too was wondering to myself how I would feel in using dogs on this type of hunt. But as another member said, you use dogs for birds & fowl & rabbits & coons as well. The lion could always leap out of the tree and either run the other way or tear the heck out of a couple of dogs.

I dunno, I still think it'd be reallycool to hunt em. A guy at work asked me why I'd hunt them, I told him I'd eat it if I killed it but that yes, it would most likely be for the sport/trophy aspect and notprimarily for food.
