Abstract
A livestock management system includes a first type of livestock tag, a second type of livestock tag, and a computing device. The first type of livestock tag includes both a first long-range wireless transceiver and a first short-range wireless transceiver and is attached to a first livestock animal. The second type of livestock tag, which is attached to a second livestock animal, includes second short-range range transceiver that transmits a unique tag identifier associated with the second type of livestock tag to the first short-range wireless transceiver; the second type of livestock tag is incapable of transmitting a long-range wireless transmission. The computing device receives the unique tag identifier of the second type of livestock tag from the first type of livestock tag via long-range wireless transmission from the first long-range wireless transceiver.
