INDIVIDUAL IDENTIFICATION AND TRANSPORT SYSTEM FOR USE IN THE HANDLING OF DEAD FURRED ANIMALS AND PELTS FROM FURRED ANIMALS

摘要

Individual identification and transport system for handling of dead furred animals and fur pelts, e.g., on mink farms, pelt processing plants, collection and sorting centers, auction houses, tanneries, and other processing of pelts from furred animals, has an electronically readable data media for individual identification data (ID-data) for an actual furred animal, and where the electronically readable data media is integrated in a transport and handling arrangement which is inserted through the nostrils of a relevant furred animal immediately after the furred animal has been killed. The transport and handling arrangement constitutes part of a transport and handling system for transport and handling of furred animals and pelts, and which remains together with the pelt from the time at which it is inserted into the pelt until it is processed into fur. The system enables the amount of manual work for the fur farmer and auction houses to be reduced.
