This doesn't look like it would actually contain raccoons, or is there more to the containment than is visible in the photo?

The metal fence in front has electric wire running along it as does the low rock wall the makes up the out most boundary of this exhibit (as you can see all the way to the left in the frame). This exhibit is nothing grand but a nice little habitat for raccoons. The tall tress are hotwired but the shrubberies are not.
