A Fence is a barrier separating two properties, fields, or other areas.
Fences can be both to keep humans and/or animals in or out of an area, or simply to mark a boundary.
Electric fences are electrified wires used to keep livestock in a given area. They may be either temporary or attached to permanent fences.
The world's longest fence is the 5,400 km Dog Fence or Dingo Fence in Australia.[1]
