They ran across what they believed to be five young wildcats and pursued them, one being caught by the Shill boy. He had no more than made the capture before he was attacked by the mother - which proved to be a mountain lion. At it sprang at him it caught his ear. Just at this moment, the dogs pounced upon the infuriated lion which diverted her attention from the boys, who made as fast as possible for camp.
