An ensemble of from one to three garment sections is provided to cover portions of the animal's body that are susceptible to harassment by biting or stinging insects. Illuminative character is present in the invention in modes and at locations that attain the highest profile of visibility, in respect of ambient visibility and the task to which the animal is placed, e.g. daylight/dusk, under saddle, hunting, turnout, etc. A bonnet section of the ensemble, with the neck section, is fashioned to stand away from the animal's eyes, thereby protecting its sight by providing a protective insect-resistive guard or debris barrier. | |
