Well, obviously there's a difference between high fence hunting and high fence hunting. In an area that is small that would restrict animals which would normally migrate large distances seasonally or otherwise, even 25 square miles might be too restrictive. The elk I hunt migrate as much as 30 miles or more from summer to winter feeding areas, and do so practically overnight. But in an area where most animals are in one small spot year-round, maybe Texas deer, I see no problem. Of course, if it's a zoo cage sized enclosure, there's no hunting involved, and it can't possibly be fair chase. All of those situations fall under "high fence."

I would always be suspicious of high fence elk situation, however, because, as a rule, those animals travel a lot in their natural habitat.
