|  | Subscriber | Join Date: Sep-07 Location: S.A. Gender: | | | The electric fence unfortunately would not have been a quick death. They pulse so you get a shock then stops then shocks etc. The ones we use can be likened to being hit over the head with a very large piece of wood  but without the pain. It is NOT pleasant  and is very effective. One of my bucks [goat ] once got caught by his horns. I'm not sure how long he had been there but had sawn half way through one horn [ by the wire ] in an effort to get away. I don't like that picture either jessb, even though it is fascinating in a macabre kind of way.

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Sep-07 Location: S.A. Gender: | | | | It is dead. The article show an impala in its belly. The post could be plastic but there are some woods that don't conduct [called insultimber ]. Bring on more weird and wonderful pics.

| | Regular Member | Join Date: Sep-06 Location: Melbourne Age: 23 | | | | im still not convinced that that is an electric fence. i have also read a few BS stories about that snake, i have no reason to believe that this story is any more accurate. the snake might be dead, the lump might be an impala and the pic of a gutted snake might be the same one as in the fence, but might not be. |

| | Subscriber | Join Date: Sep-07 Location: S.A. Gender: | | | | I have seen that article before. The electric fence is on outriggers that lie halfway along the snake. It is like 2 low wires before the main fence. Another tell tale is the fact the snake has turn to bite the wire. One of my dogs used to turn & snap at the fence when she got zapped. There is also 2 wires on the other side of the fence, not visible in the pic posted.
Have just looked at the pic again & the wire can be seen in the top left hand of pic. Had the snake not bitten the fence he would have been hit by those wires on his way out.
