The fence is coral panels that are attached to wood post. Here is an image so you know what I am talking about, you'll notice the welded pipe loops on the bottom that act as legs if you have the panels free standing.

I had to carefully but quickly hacksaw through the leg of the panel while the heifer was freaking out. I managed to get her out before she broke her neck or suffocated, good thing because it was one of my top prospects.
