description
Ear tag pliers are used by animal breeders to pierce an ear and attach the ear tag in a single motion. They are therefore an alternative to punching tongs, which simply pierce the ear, either as a mark itself or to insert the tag pin later.
Ear tag pliers are distinct from hog ring pliers. [MOT]
