I began my career as a wildlife biologist in 1998 and formed an ecological consultancy that ensured clients adhered to legislation that protected wildilfe and habitats from the impacts of fragmentation and degradation due to development, construction and infrastructure. During this time I have installed, monitored and repaired countless fences that were implemented to contain, exclude, or guide wildilfe in the interest of research and conservation.

After realizing that the generic fencing methods and materials available to us off the shelf during my early career were not adequately providing the functionality or durability we needed for our unique purposes, I set off on a journey to develop better materials and methods of installation that were purposely desgined for wildlife.

Shortly after, Animex Fencing was born.

After 10 years operating solely in Europe we began recieving calls from other countries where biologists and contractors expressed the same frustrations and limitations as a result of using generic mixed fencing materials that we had years previously.

This led us to investigate the potential applications and adjustments we would need to make to enable our fencing products and installation methods useful for other species and practitioners across the world. To date we are proud to have worked on numerous projects with various partners targeting multiple species.

Every project has taught us valuable lessons that has enabled us to continually improve our approach and products
