Since 1 January 2000, ear tag numbers must have a specific numeric format. They contain the crown logo, country code, herdmark, individual animal number and check digit

Ear tags must be fitted within 20 days of an animal’s birth, with the exception of dairy cattle, which must have at least one tag fitted within 36 hours of birth.

In a monastery garden

South Oxfordshire's rock gardens (枯山水 karesansui), often called 'zen gardens', create miniature stylized landscapes through carefully composed arrangements of rocks, water features, moss, pruned trees and bushes, and uses gravel or sand that is raked to represent ripples in water. They imitate the intimate essence of nature, not its actual appearance, and to serve as an aid to meditation about the true meaning of life.
