 | | The dense, short coat is coal fl with tan markings above the eyes and on the muzzle, chest, and legs. |
 | | The fl-and-tan is descended from the old Virginia (American) foxhound and is bred especially for proficiency in hunting raccoons and opossums. |
 | | There are other varieties of coonhound closely related to the fl-and-tan and also originally descended from the foxhound, e.g., the Walker, Trigg, redbone, bluetick, and Plott, but only the fl-and-tan is recognized as a separate breed by the American Kennel Club. |
