Why do we need equine identification?
1. Disease traceability2. Emergency management3. Equine venue documentation4. Theft

Disease Investigation Traceability
• Exposed Horses–Who and where?
• Fomite Transmission– People: Who and where?– Equipment: What and Where?– Feed and Bedding: What and Where

Current Methods of Identification
• Lip Tattoo• Branding—Hot Iron and Freeze Brand• Microchip• Pictures

Identification Challenges
• Re-‐branding• Illegible lip tattoos• Lack of single database for microchips
![Page 10: Equine’ Disease’Forum NIAA’USAHA...Equine%Health Carl’Heckendorf’DVM Colorado’Department’of’Agriculture. Why’do’we’need’equine’ identification? 1. Disease’traceability](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022050506/5f975c19ed834d34b0785244/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Current Movement Documentation
• Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI)– Lack of enforcement at borders
• Coggins Paperwork• Shipping logs• Venue entry/exit records

Traceability Challenges
• Lack of documentation• Illegible documentation• Limited electronic documentation• Lack of requirements for documentation at equine events
• Lack of permanent ID of the animals

Solution
• Permanent individual identification– Tattoo– Unique Brand– Microchip
• Coggins test and CVI requires permanent identification
• Centralized Database
