The system includes separator units which establish individual boundaries. The separator units can be worn by a subject or located at a fixed location. When the boundaries of two or more separator units overlap, a first one of the separator units transmits an interrogate signal. The interrogate signal is received by a second one of the boundary overlapping separator units which responds to the interrogate signal by transmitting a reply signal. The reply signal is received by the first separator unit, which responds by transmitting an acknowledge signal. At least one of the separator units includes a stimulator which will apply a corrective stimulus to an animal in response to either the reply signal or the acknowledge signal. | |
