Synopsis

This book introduces a tattoo method of livestock marking which was initially developed for hogs, later implemented for verifying the source of livestock-based diseases and parasites, and has since been adopted in a variety of contexts. The author details the origins and applications of this method from its inception in 1926 up to 1938, exploring its utility in both disease control and animal identification. Through systematic implementation of the technique, the author illustrates how disease origins can be traced to inform treatment and husbandry practices, and highlights its adaptability in experimental and production settings. The accessible writing style and comprehensive insights make this book a valuable resource for livestock owners, veterinarians, and researchers, demonstrating the potential of the tattoo method in advancing livestock management and disease prevention strategies.
