Abstract
An animal ear tag applicator has first and second jaws moveable radially towards each other by a pair of pivotally connected handles. The jaws are biased to an open position and the first jaw with its male tag engaging pin is forced to move to an open position independently of the handles once the male ear tag has fully engaged with the animal's ear. The pin is angled forwardly so that with the radial movement of the first jaw the pin is at substantially 90.degree. as the animal's ear is engaged and the pin is able to move beyond the 90.degree. position before the first jaw opens. In one embodiment, the pin is pivoted on the first jaw to reduce the likelihood of the male and female tags jamming in the applicator.
