| It is a reference to the expression "life is greener on the other side of the Fence" - Meaning, if you look at farm animals, they will always try and get their heads over / through fences to try and get to the grass outside of their camps. - this grass benefits from the fertilisation of the farm animals but does not get trampled by the animals, allowing to to grow greener and be more "tasty". The expression itself means that people often look at other people and think that their life would be better (i.e. greener) if they were in the shoes of those other people (i.e. on the other side of the Fence).
