[QUOTE="Heretic, post: 224200, member: 41495"] So in getting to your OP, decreasing the temp to sedate a T is risky, but can work. The problem is the timing / temp would need to be experimented to failure, meaning you would need to kill several specimen to find the optimum temp and time of exposure to find useful data to use in normal "safe" practical use. Its 100% do-able and if there was an extremely dangerous T to work with, professional biologist would do this as a safety tool. I've heard several viper-keepers do a form of this when needed for extremely high-strung and deadly specimens. This works well because they are cold blooded. T's are not, but the cold will effect all creates in this way just the same just not as effectively and as quickly. [/QUOTE]
