Hi and Happy Holidays,

What would take to build a fence that cows could not break through or jump

section. *The fence is at the top of slope which makes it more difficult for

than on animal pushing. *We are in Costa Rica where during the upcoming dry
season the pool and irrigated plants will be irresistible.

Strong posts and hogwire. All that is needed are posts that they
cannot break or push over plus wire they can't crawl through - it's
not rocket science.

Plus a strand of barbed wire on top. Or it they are good jumpers,
longer posts and two strands of barbed wire.
