If you started with this statement you wouldn’t have to eat so much crow

Ain’t mine either but I don’t begrudge others who choose it or otherwise benefit from it.

If high fences don’t hinder animal movement, what’s the point of putting one up?

To hinder yours

“They restrict the movement of wildlife”. Well, duh. But it’s not to keep animals in, it’s to keep predators and people out.

Most people complaining, who provide anecdotes about the movement of game animals, got fenced out. I think there was a news article not too far back, about somebody who made a grievance against the King ranch for high fencing his property line. Well, he was selling deer hunts and making money off the results of generations of game management he never invested in.

So who is the real bad guy?

I drag deer under fences, how tall they are doesn’t matter to me

I don’t agree with it, but supposedly the deer belong “to the people of the state”. Which would mean that one should not be able to contain them on their property

Well, again, it’s not to keep deer in. It’s to keep predators (4&2 legged) out. But you’re late to the party

Regardless of intent, the higher fence retains deer inside of it, hindering their natural movements. Predators go under and through fences, why is such a high fence needed? South texas yotes started growing wings?

So you are going to tell me that a high fence does not keep *any* predators out nor restrict their movement?

Look you want to resurrect this thread that *almost* died and reiterate points that have already been made and countered fifteen million times, and just hammer it over and over until you get the last post?

I can play that game, too, lol. I got time i am waiting on a customer overnight. The virtue signaling, elitist attitude makes me sick to my stomach. Sick the way the smell of chemicals and nailpolish do.

VERY SPECIFICALLY we are talking about a property that is 40 square miles. I would argue, to keep the poachers out a high fence would be a good start! But you’re right, not even a high fence keeps them all out. But who has time to check fences around 40 square miles?


If you have a property this size a high fence is a smart investment, and a long ways off from a pen.

Tongue in cheek or not, this is why.
