An animal identification device 10 comprising a metal ear tag 12 having a first leg 15 comprising a frame and a female mating portion 16 and a second leg 13 comprising a male mating 18 portion. A transponder housing 14, preferably made from plastics material, is retained within the frame. The female and male mating portions are locatable on opposite sides of an animal's ear and are engageable. The transponder housing houses a RFID chip. With this arrangement, the metal part of the ear tag is outermost, which increases the durability of the ear tag, e.g. to allow it to be worn throughout the lifetime of the animal.
