Effects on animals

TASER energy weapons have been an effective option for dealing with aggressive animals and have generally been successful in most deployments. The TASER 7 energy weapon uses similar technology, but does not yet have the same service record as the prior models.

If a probe deployment completed circuit is initiated and maintained, the aggressive animals are usually incapacitated/stunned momentarily in previous-generation energy weapon deployments, but recover quickly. The vast majority of the animals quickly left the scene and broke the wires.

If deployed on a domestic animal, consider having animal control available to restrain the animal.
