(WARNING: Commentary in the video contains an audible profanity.)

A rugged-looking wild dog has set tongues wagging across the country.

In less than a minute, this determined pest has made a mockery of a high-tech and expensive new fence with one job to do, keep it out.

The phone video and the incredulous comments on it were taken in Western Australia and have been quickly shared around the country.

Many millions of dollars are being spent around Australia by landholders and governments on thousands of kilometres of fences just like this.

Exclusion fences aren’t totally dog proof.

1. Hey! We paid a lotta money for that fence!

2. I would have thought

That an exclusion fence would be sunk much deeper into the ground.

3. from the comments it wasn't getting "in"

it was escaping and afraid because of people present. the apron at the bottom of the fence is to prevent digging and it is clearly on the opposite side from the animal
