An animal identification tag (8) comprises first and second body portions which are connected together by a web portion. The web portion is adapted so that the first and second body portions can fold relative to one another. The first body portion is provided with a piercing means (32) and the second body portion is adapted to receive the piercing means (32). Prior to use, the tag is part-folded such that one of the first and second body portions lies at an angle to the horizontal. The tag (8) can be provided with a crease line and/or a groove (34) to assist in the folding of the tag (8). Sets of tags (8) can be formed with a spine member (40). By providing a tag (8) that is already part-folded prior to use, the tag (8) is easier to apply to the ear of an animal, as less force is required from the tag applicator. <IMAGE>
