Our local black bears would push our 10-12 foot (I can't remember, we tore it down 2 years ago after repairing it every year) wire (not chicken wire, but the thicker stuff that the gaps get smaller as they go down to keep out the smaller animals) fence that used cemented 6x6's every 10 feet or so feet every year. We've had a family of big black bears who have a den area in the next property down basically my whole life. They'd be chill and cool all year round, until the plums on our tree would get just to the perfect ripeness and then one would just push one of the posts down and hop in. They'd also get into our double tied down and rubber bungied trash now and again (didn't matter if it was metal or plastic). Other than that though they've always been real cool and never bothered us at all. Never bothered any of our dogs throughout the years either. In fact, even though we had to remove the fence 2 years ago because it was too much work for my dad (who's getting older) to repair every year, we still take it upon ourselves to try to protect the bear family because newer city slicker type of people have moved in around their place who think that black bears are scary. I helped my dad pull out those posts last year and they were underground and in cement for about 3 feet, that was some work removing them!Nice fence! Our local bears would just push through it or go over it depending on their size and depending what food they smell. I had to stop feeding the birds because the bears loved the seed even more than the birds did.
That patina is magnificent!
