摘要:
An animal identification system, including a race 1 including a pair of opposed walls 3, 4 between which, in use, animals pass, and one or more readers 5 on or about each of the opposed walls respectively 3, 4. The one or more readers 5 are configured to read electronic animal identification devices borne by animals passing along the race. The race has a structure that causes animals to move within the race such that identification devices borne by the animals are moved in a non-linear manner through the race. This non-linear movement tends to bring the animals’ animal identification devices into closer proximity to at least one of the one or more readers. The readers are positioned in, about, or opposing race wall projections, curves or other features causing the animal movement in the horizontal plane, to substantially maximize successful identification device reads by the one or more readers.
