There are two types of conflict. One's psychological. It deals with the conflict between Billy Coleman and his parents over spending money. In tight times, Billy's parents want to make sure that survival needs are met. They don't want to pay for frills, or take chances on something so risky as coon-hunting dogs. The other conflict's physical. And there are two main examples. One's the ghost coon hunting contest between Billy's dogs, and the dogs belonging to Rainie and Rubin Pritchard. Billy's dogs Old Dan and Little Annie win. But Billy doesn't want to kill the coon. So the Pritchard dogs fight Billy's dogs, and the Pritchard boys fight Billy. The conflict ends with Rubin falling on his own axe. The second physical conflict's the treeing of the mountain lion. The lion leaps at Billy. The conflict ends with Old Dan killing the lion, saving Billy's life, and dying later that night from his wounds.
