Pen animals, wild or tame, will not be able to cross over the fence even when [[manhunter]] or being lead by a colonist. Note however that, like [[wall]]s, trapped wild animals will still attempt to break down them down if starving. All other pawns can cross over the fence at will, but will be slowed down. |

They are however extremely weak and can rarely enable predators to eat your farm animals. This risk of predation increases as pen sizes goes up and the chance of a predator randomly walking in gets higher. |

This can be useful for slowing the enemy without providing much cover, and for blocking one side of [[wall]]s, [[barricade]]s or [[sandbags]] to deny their usage to the enemy.
