I recently adopted a couple of girls from the humane society, and one of them has an ear tag. It's small and metal and looks like it goes right through her ear.
Does anyone know why someone would tag her ear? She was abandoned at the shelter so they don't know who her owner was. They couldn't even tell me her age or anything. My boyfriend and I have a suspicion she's a show pig or something, because she's really docile and used to being handled, but I'm just curious if anyone would know for sure?
By the way, I've named her Luna.
Here's the ear tag:
And just for fun, here's Luna with long hair:
And here's after the apparently traumatic hair trim:
That poor girl could barely walk without tripping over her own hair. And I am pretty certain she couldn't see either!
