“What about the wildlife?” Axel asked. “Our current borders are marked with crude fencing and impenetrable mountain passes. They are simple, but part of the reason we haven’t worked harder to build them up is because of the wildlife. There are animals that migrate in and out of the territory throughout the year. These turrets and sentries you’re talking about, would they pose a risk to the animals?”
“Yes and no,” Clara said. “They won’t be able to migrate back and forth as quickly as before. But if you have areas you know are migration points, we can adjust how we set up the borderlines.
“We can set sensors that would identify the animals on their approach and open the gate. There would need to be a second more obscured boundary line a little further in to double-check that someone didn’t figure it out and use the migrating group to sneak in.
“That’s the way we have sections of our eastern border set up to keep from interrupting the deer migration.”
