Identification

1. Farmed elk must be individually identified with two forms of identification as prescribed by the state veterinarian. The form of identification must be permanent and unique to each animal. One form of permanent identification must be an official tag or other form approved by the state veterinarian. 2. When loss of an animal identification is discovered, the animal must be identified with approved identification as soon as reasonably possible. 3. Identification assigned to an individual farmed elk may not be transferred to any other animal. 4. Newborn farmed elk must be individually identified prior to removal of the animal from the farmed elk premises or within twelve months of birth, whichever comes first.
