A fencing system including a plurality of vertical support members for supporting a plurality of elongate support members so as to create a physical barrier. A plurality of elongate conductors are attached to the elongate support members and positioned so that the elongate conductors attached to each elongate support member run parallel to the elongate support members. A power supply is connected to the elongate conductors so that an electrical potential is created.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A fencing system comprising:an elongate support provided by an electrically non-conductive material, the support being substantially rigid and linearly oriented and having a front surface opposite and spaced apart from a back surface and at least two spaced apart elongate channels defined in the space between the front and back surfaces with each channel having an elongate slit that is smaller in cross-section than the channel and provided on the front surface thereof to provide access to the channel from the front surface;at least two elongate conductors nondestructably removably attachable to the support, each conductor having an elongate support surface nondestructably removably positionable within one of the channels of the support, an elongate contact surface spaced apart from the support surface and positionable adjacent the front surface of the support and a connecting portion positionable within one of the slits and extending between the support surface of the conductor and the contact surface of the conductor; anda power supply having oppositely charged poles for providing electrical power to each conductor, with adjacent ones of the conductors being oppositely charged such that when an animal comes into simultaneous contact with oppositely charged conductors an electronic circuit is completed and an electric current is applied to the animal.
