A system (10) for managing animals, includes an indicator unit (12) having a receiver (14), a transmitter and an alert means (16), and an animal transponder (20), couplable to an animal to be managed. The indicator unit is portable and/or is adapted to be borne by a user. The animal transponder is arranged, in use, to transmit an identification signal corresponding to the respective animal to the indicator unit when the animal transponder is within a range of the indicator unit and the indicator unit is arranged to transmit identification data based at least in part on the identification signal received from the animal transponder to a remote computing device (28, 48). The computing device is arranged to interrogate a database in response to receipt of the identification data and to transmit a response signal to the indicator unit dependent on data associated with the animal corresponding to the identification data, and the indicator unit is configured to perform a predetermined event dependent on the response signal.
