This document discusses recent updates in darting techniques and equipment for capturing and restraining animals. It describes new dart gun technologies with interchangeable barrels and video capabilities. Lighter darts with tracking transmitters are mentioned. Net guns propelled by gas or blanks are reviewed as a physical restraint device. Conducted electrical weapons like Tasers that use barbed darts connected by wires to deliver pulses are also summarized, noting their effects and limited use for wildlife.
