ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a tong-like hand implement for collecting solid animal waste within a small plastic bag, including a pair of pivotally connected levers having loop handles at one end. The other ends of the levers support a pair of resilient, bendable, bag-engaging arms that lie parallel to the pivot axis of the levers. These resilient arms are engagable within the open end of a plastic bag, and then the loop handles can be manipulated to space the arms from each other, the arms resiliently bowing as they are spread apart against the open end of the bag, the open bag then being invertible to form a cavity for receiving the waste material, the handles then being manipulated to close the bag about the waste material.
