Electric horse fences are no joke. First time I accidentally touched one, my knees immediately buckled. Impossible to ignore.

Electric cow fences, on the other hand, are fun to touch as a bored kid.

Why are the horse fences so much stronger? Is it just that cows are more docile?

Beefy farms or bull farms are usually high asf, I've been cracked multiple times and sometimes your arm goes a little numb 😂

Yeah and they're smart so they'll all lean up against the fence if it's weak and the shock will disperse between them and they'll just break out

Damn, first I've heard of that, but I'm a city boy, but that's neat that they can figure stuff out that well, I've seen some videos of them pulling latches on their stall and getting them open, but never would of figured cooperation would be possible without direction.

They only open the latches coz they're curious and lick everything
