ABSTRACT:
An improved method and tool for installing an identification tag into the ear of an animal. The tool comprises a handle portion and an elongated insertion portion having an end portion with a flat top surface and opposed blunt edges converging to form a sharp piercing tip. The tool also has engagement means for engaging a portion of an animal identification tag which is to be forced through the ear. In carrying out the method, the pointed tip and blunt edges are forced through the ear of an animal to pierce and stretch the tissue, and to create an opening. A portion of the identification tag is passed through the opening, and the tool is withdrawn while leaving the tag in place.
