ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an improved animal identification tag for attachment to the ear of an animal, which stands up when attached to the ear to provide for improved readability. The tag is of one-piece construction, and is easily inserted. The tag has a flat information-carrying portion having a surface on which indicia may be placed, and a pin extending outwardly from the edge of the information-carrying portion in a direction generally parallel to the surface. The end of the pin has laterally extending, resilient, flexible prongs forming a spear-shaped portion which passes through the ear of the animal and retains the tag in the ear. To retain the tag in an upright position, the tag is provided with a pair of flexible, resilient support members extending outwardly from the information-carrying portion adjacent to the shaft. These support members are positioned to contact the surface of the ear of an animal when the prongs and end of the shaft are passed through the ear.
