Re: [aroid-l] elephant fences was: Woodchuck problem


Realize this is not aroid related, but am very curious about what one
would use to make a fence that would stop a determined elephant.

At the ultimate extreme, at least two national parks in Thailand have
had to go to the astronomical expense of installing anti-elephant
fences to protect their nursery plantations from roaming herbs
(elephant populations in Thailand ore increasing at teh same time the
forests are shrinking - a bad combination). 

Mercifully elephants aren't known to burrow and haven't yet figured
that they could climb over the barrier if they had a step ladder....
