ABSTRACT:
The present invention features a method of electronic identification of bovine animals and other species. The method implants an electronic transponder subcutaneously in the leg of an animal, between the deep digital flexor tendon and the large metatarsal bone. The transponder is implanted between approximately one and six inches above the dew claw. The transponder is positioned so that it has a substantially vertical orientation when the animal is standing, making this method of insertion more reliable, since the implant can be accurately and more easily measured or scanned. Data representative of both the animal's identity and characteristics (e.g., temperature, activity, ownership, origin, etc.) can be monitored and/or recorded.
