Hunting method which uses dogs to force animals to climb up trees

Treeing is a method of hunting where dogs are used to force animals that naturally climb up into trees, where they can be assessed or shot by hunters. The idiomatic phrase "Barking up the wrong tree" comes from this practice.

The treeing technique uses dogs to force naturally climbing animals into trees, where they can be assessed or shot by hunters. Treeing enables hunters to see the quarry and decide if the prey should be killed, and if so with a cleaner kill, or spared. For example, females with youths may be left untouched, This method of hunting is also used for cougar and black bear. The dogs are trained to bay, not directly attack the quarry; however, it is not unheard of for the quarry to kill some of the dogs or for the dogs to kill the quarry. Usually, the quarry will climb a tree to escape the dogs after a period of chase and harassment. Blackmouth Cur use this method. Traditionally, the dogs were followed on foot by hunters listening to their barks, although some hunters now use radio direction finding equipment to follow the pack.

Treeing is also sometimes performed without the intention of killing the quarry for scientific purposes (such as radio tagging) or recreational purposes. It is especially useful for cougars, which are notoriously stealthy and difficult to capture without the aid of dogs.

Treeing is illegal in several US states, including California, Montana, New Mexico, and Washington.
