The top part of the Hide and Carcass Identification Tag referred to in Sections 885 and 886 above shall accompany the hide until the hide is inspected by the brand inspector. This tag, when properly completed and signed, will be accepted for brand inspection purposes as the bill of sale from the person requesting the animal to be slaughtered. This provision does not, however, preclude the brand inspector from requesting additional bills of sale or proof of ownership from the person declaring ownership of the bovine animal which was slaughtered.
