When you chase a lion for 5-20 miles, you can end up with dogs scattered about thousands of acres. People can identify your dogs and call you.
Google Earth Pioche Nevada to see the kind of country they are running through. Its a bit different than Massachusetts farm fields.
Most hound men run a mix of Redbones, Blueticks or Black and Tans on big game. Out here on the plains, they run greyhounds, the big ones that are all legs, lungs and teeth and tear apart a coyote. I'm curious why lion hunters in the Great Basin country would not have a couple greyhounds in the pack....they are faster than anything else.
