Cross the road lion...

I had a lion run across the road in front of me last night about 9:30 pm, heading towards town. I was at work and we can't run lions in Utah at night, so we made a plan to get after it this morning.
Well we got lucky and treed him, he turned out to be a decent tom and the dogs did a good job.
Here are some pics.
Take care.

What is that dog on the tree in the last pic? I have a couple of Trigg crosses that look a lot like that.

A few miles maybe as the crow flies, after a detour through some houses.
Take care.
