In order to hunt game animals in most jurisdictions, a hunter has to receive a license from a regulating agency in the jurisdiction which is to be attached to the harvested game animal. At the present time, once the hunter receives the issued license, there is no convenient way to store it until it is applied to the harvested animal. As such, many hunting licenses are lost before they can be used.
An additional problem associated with hunting licenses is that the hunter has to affix the license to the harvested animal in the field and there is no easy way to do this. The hunting license can be attached to the game animal by strings or rubber bands but these articles are cumbersome to carry out in the hunting arena and can easily become disengaged from the animal during its transport and result in the license being lost.
Therefore, there is a need to provide a game tagging system which conveniently stores a hunting license until it is desired to apply it to a game animal and allows the license to be securely attached to the harvested game animal. The present invention was arrived at in order to address these problems.
