Abstract
A tag assembly comprises male and female tag members intended to be disposed on opposite sides of an animal's ear and to be held together by a part passing through the ear. The female tag member has a laminar body and a laminar extension in the plane of the body having an arrow-shaped head which may be forced through a curved slot in an attachment member in order to securely attach the attachment member to the tag assembly. The attachment member, which may serve a marking function or as a means of applying insecticide to the animal, is readily replaceable by a fresh attachment member without removing the tag assembly from the animal, and, if desired, more than one attachment member may be accommodated at a time on the extension.
