2. אמר ר ' מני בר פטיש : Who is the Tanna of our Mishna that holds that a “low level guarding” is good enough for a מועד type of damage? It could even be ר ' מאיר : He would hold that שן and רגל of the Mishna are different than קרן because the Torah limited how much you have to guard from them It must be ר ' יהודה , because our Mishna is discussing מועד , just as he was How well does one have to guard his animal? If the owner tied up his ox with a rein, or locked it up properly, and it escaped and damaged… What defines “properly” or “improperly”? A gate that can withstand a normal wind is considered locking up properly. A gate that could not withstand a normal wind is considered locking up improperly. תנו רבנן רבי יהודה says: Minimal effort in guarding is enough by a מועד . So if the animal was מועד the owner would be פטור . But the owner of a תם must do extra guarding, and is חייב . רבי אליעזר says: The only way of really guarding it is with a knife רבי מאיר He must pay, whether it was תם or מועד
