FIG7 is a perspective view of the fence assembly of FIG1, illustrating the secondary fence formed by a truss
FIG7 illustrates an alternative secondary fence 185 according to another embodiment of the invention. Secondary fence 185 includes an alternative second elongated body 189 defined by a truss 180 having a plurality of truss members 182 made of a first material (e.g., aluminum). In some embodiments, a second material 184 is provided within the spaces defined between the truss members 182. In further embodiments, the first material may have a first density that is greater than a second density of the second material 184.
