One of the nurses spoke up, looking up from her PADD, "An isolinear tag."
She saw them look at her, not making the connection at first. "You wanted to tag them, but don't want to hurt them. A comm badge is fine, but is obvious and overkill for something so simple. It's what they use on wildlife. I've worked with teams that were trying to rescue and relocate some animals a few times. They can tag a target with one to enhance transporter lock or any sensor lock really. A tiny processor that they might not even feel, depending on where you hit them with it. If these guys start waking up, just attach one to the back of their collar on the clothing, or something. If you have to, you can replicate a small gun that fires them using a spring loaded mechanism, good to about 100 meters, but the range falls off quickly after that. Or, if you put an auto-injector on them before they wake up, you could trigger it remotely, especially if you hide it on them. Some big animals get violent when they feel cornered, so we would use those if things went bad while trying to release them at a new location."
She then smiled and went back to monitoring the pods for any fluctuations.
