Coyotes Attacked the Cow Pasture Last Night! I've Never Seen this Happen

What happens here

The farmer drives the ATV to the edge of the large pasture and hooks up the portable electric fence system. This involves securing the polybraid/polywire and connecting it to a Fence D-Tech monitor. The monitor sends an alert to the farmer's phone if the fence loses power, allowing him to remotely monitor the fence's status while on vacation. He also explains how to tighten the fence using a manual tensioner.

Goal: Establish a secure electric fence around the new pasture section for cattle.
