    That would make a lot of sense, but as we can see the stringers are connected together, meaning they’d just short out if they were alternate polarities. To me this indicates that it’s like a standard livestock fence, with an electrode in the ground somewhere and the circuit completing through the animal.

    However, considering my 16’x48’ pig enclosure required a three-foot rod to be grounded, a system large enough for a sauropod would need a lot of grounding. Considering this, the fact that they used a circuit-through-animal design indicates it probably wasn’t the best way to do it.

    Spared no expense…
