Bear visit - I am worried sick - electric fence ideas?

[jimcarey]

I solved all my problems on the farm with a monitored electric fence. It plugs into a security system and lets me know whenever someone is messing with it. It's designed to keep elephants out, so I'm sure it'll work with bears. These people are the ones who designed it for me (free!) and helped me a lot: http://hvpsa.com.

Hire a licensed bear hunter to take care of the problem.

Some folk's set up a perimeter fence around the chicken coop area. Metal T stakes and 3 or 4 strands of hot wire.

There is another BYC member by the name of Capvin who has this type of set up and he has posted pic's of it . Might do a search and take a look at his pic's for idea's.
