Question:
 Why use the GMPBasic traceability system ?

Answer:
The world is becoming increasingly aware of unique animal identification. This is in a world with more legal challenges from clients, people in contact with animals and the public in general.

Through using the 'GMP' system, you will be linking into our central World Animal Database.

This means that your animals domestic or 'licensed' wild animals will be 'TRACEABLE', auditable, verifiable.

Question:
 What does this traceability mean ?

Answer:
Each animal in your possesion or ownership should
be UNIQUELY identified. Each animal can be verified, identified by one of a variety of 'identifiers' which can
be linked back to your specific animal.

There are various identifiers & tools available in
the market place:-

a. DNA
b. Photos
c. Visual, non re-usable plastic tags, metal tags
d. Visual, non re-usables. Microchip implants

In the GMP system, many kinds of markers are utilised.

The GMP system uses a unique, patented coding
structure for issuing its ANCHOR numbers for

 - Livestock,
 - Birds,
 - Companion animals, 
 - Wildlife
 - Exotic' animals.
