tranquilizer darts
Sleep-inducing ammunition
Tranquilizer darts are projectiles designed to deliver sedative drugs to animals or humans from a distance, typically fired from specialized air rifles or blowguns.
They're used by wildlife researchers to safely capture animals for study, by zoos and animal control to subdue escaped or dangerous animals, and in fiction as a convenient way to incapacitate people without killing them: They shot the escaped tiger with a tranquilizer dart.
