Rick,
I've seen - sometime in the past 5 years or so - some info on doing
muzzle-printing of cattle; perhaps one or more of the breed
associations was or was considering using it as a permanent form of
ID for registered animals - evidently, muzzle prints are as specific
as are fingerprints used for positive ID of humans.
