The elastic mechanism 103 is used as a deformed part which is not in direct contact with the ear of the animal, so that the contact area of the ear tag and the ear of the animal is large and constant. In one embodiment, the elastic mechanism 103 is designed as a hollow structure, and the hollow portion is symmetrical to the center or axisymmetric to facilitate ventilation. Specifically, the elastic mechanism 103 at least includes two elastic arcuate arms (the two arcuate arms form a pair, and there may be several pairs), or three elastic arcuate arms distributed in a triangular manner, and one end of each of the arcuate arms is connected to the bottom edge of the cylinder 101, and the other end is connected to the edge of the base 102. The oppositely designed resilient arcuate arms may also be two pairs. In principle, the shape and size of the resilient arcuate arms are not limiting. The base 102 is of circular or regular polygonal design.
