According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.
I'd like to see photos of the fence in various locations. The article mentions lights in certain areas, powered during the day by solar cells. Are there any dusk / night photos of the phence available? Appears that there are ...
It has also been suggested that the large kangaroo populations in the south east have been caused by the fence, which have caused a larger problem due to eating grass and using up water than the dingos were
AFAIK the studies which looked at this kind of thing found the correlation was between distance to water holes, not to which side of the fence the populations were on? I didn't think the 6 foot fence hindered movement of kangaroos or emus very significantly.
(Water holes tended to increase the numbers of kangaroos and emus at the expense of smaller mammels which don't rely on open water to drink from. The suggestion was, to increase overall biodiversity, reduce the number of water holes so that the environment can only sustain smaller populations of kangaroos, emus, dogs, foxes and dingos)

The main reference for this pasture competition appears to be [1], an advertising allegory for a software company — hardly a reliable source! In fact most of the references in the article seem rather poor. The CSIRO reference doesn't seem to mention water, but I thought of it too when I read the discussion - do sheep (on the south side) need more regular water holes than cattle (on the north side)? The CSIRO page does say the land is similar both sides, because the north being more arid could also lead to that result.--Scott DavisTalk13:54, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'd be interested to know how fence crossings work. Is there a cattle grid arrangement or a sterile zone? 194.72.35.70 13:08, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
