JACKSON, Wyo. — Virtual fencing (VF) is an up-and-coming technology that provides a unique opportunity to increase conservation while supporting ranches and livestock. According to the Greater Yellowstone Coalition (GYC), VF consists of cows wearing collars with battery-powered transceivers that use GPS, wireless signals and radio frequency.
