        Yep, they'll do it. I've heard to only wire the panels about half way up the post and when they get close to the top it'll bend back into the pen dumping them back in and then spring back up.

            That would be awesome to watch, unless it was your trailer.

            That's sounds like a simple fix.
            I'll have to try that on our trap.

              An officer in our archery club claimed it worked great for him. I plan on trying it when I build a figure six trap.

                    The bad thing about puting a top on it you will catch deer in it.

                        We built one of the heart shaped traps, Wexford or something like that, using 5' tall goat panels.
                        We haven't had anything climb over yet, but we haven't caught anything big yet either.

                        We've got pictures of several does entering and inside of pen. Even had one picture of a doe jumping over the 5' panel. They are some amazingly agile animals.

                          Yep, seen them do it before in our round traps. In fact, at our local hog catching festival, I've seen them jump up and get their front feet over the top of a 4' fence and scramble over the top - sending spectators and staff scrambling around the football field (where the catching is located) in order to catch them. Hogs are a lot more agile and a lot better jumpers than people think! Sure, they prefer to dig under; but, in a pinch, they're able to jump pretty durn high!

                            Yep have video of one climbing out of mine. Fixed that by put a fence around the trap completely, caught a hog the next day, and couldn't get out.
