What is this? Horse tack, Oxen tack or ?

I found this metal detecting in an old farm field. I have no idea what it is. Could it be some sort of horse tack or Oxen tack?

Perhaps it's a latch of some kind? it looks like it was made to be adjusted.

Good find. It looks to be a set of nose pincers used on a ox or bull to lead them or control them.

Thank you Nevada Prospector. You are correct! I did some research and found many "bull leaders" that resemble the one I found!! I appreciate your help with this! Thanks again!

Could be a suspender clasp. Maybe from corn-pop himself. He was a bad dude! Hehehe
