There are two ways I know of to get tranquilizer darts; either from a merchant who sells them, or from random loot.

Each island has a licensed vendor in town who sells darts (Skiia, Kizan, and Saardan; I'm not sure about Iskaai), and you can choose whatever type of ammo you want/need/can afford. You will sometimes find darts in containers, and even once in a while in a trash barrel (keep searching the trash barrels in the towns!), as well as occasionally in floating debris at sea.

Bear in mind that there are three calibers of darts currently in the game; one for rifles, one for revolvers, and one for great rifles. The revolver and great rifle haven't been implemented yet, so you can't fire them. You could always store them away in your ship until these other two weapons are added, or you can sell them for a decent quantity of Pieces of Drake.

There are also some darts at your camp and on the counter next to Timathi (after speaking to Sterling to get the rifle) on Skiia that you can pick up directly.

Just suppose, you trang a Wild Bred at distance, and they run off into the herbs where you can't find them and drop, never to be found. Or, you use the wrong tranq, and they run off, eventually slowing down, but never shot again for whatever reason.

Does the dropped one just lay on the ground forever, unless you happen to discover it at some later date?

Does the half-tranqed Wild Bred go zombie and wander the outback for all eternity, until shot again?

Both of these have occurred to me, and was just wondering if these Wild Bred are findable at some later point.

If they are tranquilized, they will remain tranquilized indefinitely until you move too far away from their spawner (despawning them) or reload your save (they aren't saved in your save). If you use the wrong kind of dart for their species, they will indefinitely be slowed but not indefinitely spooked (as long as you don't move too far away from their spawner - despawning them). Almost always you can just wait where you originally shot them and they'll eventually walk back. Their footprints will also last a long time if you want to track them.
