[AlpacaTalk] Re: no climb fence

But other animals can still climb it? Like goats and predators?
That is what was confusing to me.....it looked just like all the wire
fencing I have ever used except it was woven instead of welded.
Actually it seemed to me it would be *easier* for the goats or any other
heavier animal to climb as the woven would be sturdier and not break
under the weight of the animal climbing it.

Thanks! Janice
