What would be the best and easiest way to secure my fencing area?

What would be the best and easiest way to secure my fencing area? - Feddit.it

I’ve got a big piece of land, it is all fenced with a decently high fencing, but during the times animals dug holes below it, some parts broke, some animals climb it. Since I’d like to cultivate/hold animals in, what would be the best way to make THIS fence animal proof, without relying on other fencing around animals or my cultivations? Is it even possible/worth it? We have wolves, foxes, boars, etc etc etc… I was thinking about electric wiring somehow (?), does it make it foolproof? Otherwise what other options may I have?

Long fences are expensive and labour-intensive.

Electric fences are reliable, but you need experience setting them up.

Dimensions (height, distances between lines)
Insulators in the right places
The right type of lines
The right power
Keeping vegetation away

I’ve heard, and hopefully someone with a little more experience can chime in, that bears can bust through an electric fence pretty easily because they are a bit less cautious of running through obstacles than deer are, for example. I’ve heard that some people will hang little bits of meat or something on the fence itself when they first install it so that any curious bears will approach the fence itself and get a shock.
