He Found a Lion in His Chicken Coop In Texas
Episode 98
Tuesday, 8 September, 2026
For decades, Chester Moore has investigated reports of mysterious cats roaming the American wilds. Some can probably be explained as mountain lions. Others aren't nearly so easy. In this episode of Dark Outdoors®, Chester digs into some of the strangest big-cat encounters people have personally brought to him—including the astonishing account of a Texas man who said he walked outside and discovered what appeared to be an African lion in his chicken coop. Then there are the tracks. Chester recounts his own investigation of enormous cat tracks that seemed far too large for what should have been walking through that country, along with other reports involving unusually large and possibly exotic cats. Could escaped exotic cats explain some of the strangest predator sightings reported across Texas and the South? How many unusual animals have disappeared into the woods without anyone ever knowing they were there? Some sightings are mistakes. Some have ordinary explanations. But every once in a while, somebody sees something that isn't supposed to be there.
