CepyngU,
A new method of identifying
sheep to prevent livestock theft,
has been devised by Australian
sheep producers. This brand is
about the size of a penny, and it
comprises three letters and three
figures. These are indelibly ta-
tooed into the bare skin of thi
sheep’s flank with a special pair
of pliers. The system is inex­
pensive and an experienced oper­
ator can brand a sheep in about
three seconds. A thief could cut
out this brand, but this would
cripple the sheep for about two
months and leave a tell-tale scar.
