Electric Fence Workshop (to help with wildlife conflicts)

For those interested in preventing conflicts with black bears and other wildlife, the CT DEEP Wildlife Division is offering free workshops that will primarily focus on protecting apiaries, livestock, crops, and more through electric fencing. Whether you are considering the use of electric fencing and are unsure of where to start, or if you had difficulty with your electric fence setup in the past, this workshop guides participants through the setting up an effective electric fence. This is often a worthwhile investment to avoid costly losses or damage from black bears. Registration is required to attend. Workshop details and registration information.
