Abstract:
Apparatus for managing animals such as but not limited to livestock. In some embodiments, a tag assembly is configured for attachment to an outer ear of an animal. The tag assembly has a main body and a shaft that extends through an aperture extending through the outer ear to attach the main body to a facing surface of the outer ear. A primary temperature sensor of the tag assembly is configured to obtain outer ear temperature data indicative of an outer ear temperature of the outer ear. A control circuit is configured to receive the outer ear temperature data via a wireless communication link with the tag assembly. The control circuit determines a health state of the animal in response to a localized change in a magnitude of the outer ear temperature data in relation to a set of ambient temperature data over a selected time interval.

Claim (Index 10):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising an auxiliary sensor configured to be located proximate the animal at a separate location apart from the tag assembly, the auxiliary sensor configured to transmit auxiliary parametric data to the tag assembly, the tag assembly further configured to transmit the auxiliary parametric data to the control circuit via the wireless communication link.
