The solar farm near Bakersfield had a sheep problem I didn't expect
Drove out to check on a friend's solar installation last month and saw about 40 sheep grazing under the panels, which was cute until I noticed they were chewing through the wire casings on the lower racking. Has anyone else dealt with animals causing weird damage to their solar setup?

Oh man, sheep chewing wire casings. That's rough. I once had a goat eat the label off my brand new extension cord, so I guess I can relate to your solar farm buddy's pain just on a much dumber scale.

Hundred percent honest, I used to roll my eyes at people fencing off their solar panels. Thought it was overkill, like come on, how much damage can a few sheep really do. But hearing about chewed wire casings and failed inverters? Yeah, I get it now, that's a costly lesson I wouldn't want to learn firsthand.
