I'm not a fan of high-fence in its stereotypical form (not much space).
800-1,100 acres (as outlined in the first video) is about 1.5 square miles. Not too limiting.
In Africa, it can be essential to maintain a species, like Texas housing a lot of game that would simply get wiped out. Large area high fence hunting, like in this article:
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/can-hunting-endangered-animals-save-the-species/ is something that should be considered. However, no real hunter would hunt a deer on 90 acres (fenced in) like I see in places like Wisconsin and the like.
If I bought 1,000 acres - you bet your bottom dollar I would put a fence around it. Here are some great animated gifs on how much bucks and does actually move around (Amazing Video...

But less than that - not going to affect them much, in my opinion. But I respect anyone's opinion about it. I just think it can be used for good sometimes.
