Description

Conventionally, identification of horses has been conducted by various methods. The proposed method is basically an application of the freezing technique to horses. Marks were made by instruments in solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) and 95% ethanol. These were made with pressure on the handle of the applicator instrument. Freeze-brand were applied at 10 to 60 seconds. White-haired marks appeared most consistently when application time was between 20 and 30 seconds. At about 3 months, the hair will grow in white and number or mark will be more discernible.
