What are some good exotics you can keep in a net wire low fence ranch? Other than rams, oryx, or black bucks?

Just about any of them can get out of a low fence wire if pressured.

I agree with that, but are their any others that people keep in a low fence operation that dont jump fences. We are going to put in a new net wire fence and would like something we can keep in.

Alot will depend on what kind of habitat/feed you provide and how you condition the animals.
Another big factor is what do your neighbors have in their pastures.
If you breed in separate pens and release shooters you will be fine. Buy a bunch of wild stock and you could lose some. I have seen fallow and Sika in low fence but they were fairly tame.

i would say just about all of these could get out if they really wanted to but if you have plenty of food water and cover id say you wouldnt have a problem keepin a good number of them on your 1600 acers...are you goin to hunt them? stick with archery if you do...alot less pressure on the animals...IMO

I seem to remember a place between Cherokee and Llano that has what looks like blackbuck on a low fence.
A guy in San Saba turned some axis loose on his place, they jumped the fence and live across the road on the neighbors now.
We have low fence axis at both ends of the road now but still haven't had any show up on our place.
