<p>A tag for attachment to the ear of an animal, said tag comprising in combination a male component having a headed stem and a female component having a base portion with an upper surface and a lower surface, a panel projecting upwardly from the upper surface. An opening is formed in the vase portion and the headed portion of the stem of the male component is able to pass through the opening to effect coupling of the male and female components. The lower surface of the base includes an engagement surface which in use of the tag engages with the upper outer surface of an animal's ear. The engagement surface has a profile which relative to the panel is transverse to the plane of the panel and follows the contour of the upper outer surface of the animal's ear to which the tag is to be applied to resist swiveling movement of the tag about the axis of coupling between the male and female components.</p> |
