Mysterious Hunter Prowls Our North Carolina Farm! What is it?

What happens here

The farmer sets up a temporary electric fence to create an alleyway for the cattle. He uses poly wire (electrified) and step-in posts. He demonstrates pulling the poly wire tight and connecting it to a solar-powered IntellaShock 120 electric fence controller. He then tests the wire with a fence tester to ensure it's 'hot' (electrified) to deter the cattle.

Goal: Create an electric fence alleyway for cattle.
