    Is it true ? There IS électricity on thèse fences?

    I am assuming that an indestructible fence (too expensive of course) would have reduced the probability the elephants would be shot by farmers.

    N?? didnt get shocked even ONCE?!? The fences couldnt've been on then.
    the only reason they do this is bcuz ppl have erected these fences blocking the ancient paths to their water holes. the elephant doesnt know another route to the water, or theyd take it! their such a peaceful animal, they dont wanna cause conflict!

      Exactly.
      It is pure evil to put electric fences in elephant corridors & try to kill them or paralyze them.
      If there is human - elephant conflict , it is because some greedy people have trespassed into elephant corridors & harass elephants in their own territory and provoke them to go on a rampage dangerous to all & also remove deep rooted forests & plant crops with shallow roots & make the entire region susceptible to mud sliding & devastating floods & loss of life.
      These greedy people encroaching into elephant corridors should be punished with 20 years rigorous Imprisonment for their crimes against humanity & wild life & forests.
      All the electric fences and encroachments in elephant corridors should be removed &reforestation should be done in denuded elephant corridors by the forest department to prevent mud sliding & devastating floods & loss of life.
      Lakes & ponds should be dug by the forest department at strategic points for elephants & other wild life.
      There should be animal over bridges at regular intervals over railway tracks & roads crossing forests.
      All captive elephants also should be formed into herds in a sanctuary & then released in their own elephant corridors for their welfare & for our safety.

    Not an electric fence - there are no insulators on the poles.

    Tanasity is my favourite word in the whole world. I wonder if the sound of bees would deter them. Just a thought

      Hi there. - yes bee hives can help on an individual farm level but for larger landscapes the electric fences seem to work most effectively.

      It is not a question of smartness. They are fighting for their survival.

    these fences are real threat. animal's migration effect n brought a huge disbalance in eco system..

      Hi Sheela. The fences are put there to protect the elephants. The charge in them is very small and acts only as a deterrent to stop them breaking into farmer fields and destroying crops. Fences are used to protect elephants from farmer retaliation. Elephants still follow old migration passages and the land over time has become agricultural land and in some cases space for villages. Our work aims to create a safer environment where growing populations of people and elephants can live alongside one another.
