         3 . The tracking device of  claim 1 , wherein said carrier further comprises
 a hole near the front-end side of said carrier;   a fastener comprising a pair of prongs, wherein each of said prongs comprises an orifice, said orifice capable of aligning with said hole, further wherein said weaponized projectile mountable in between said prongs; and   a pin insertable through said orifice and said hole.   
     
     
         4 . The tracking device of  claim 3 , further comprising a ring, said ring insertable onto said weaponized projectile and said tracking device such that said ring wrapped around the rear-end portion of said carrier connecting said weaponized projectile with said tracking device. 
     
     
         5 . The tracking device of  claim 5  further comprising a u-shaped catch, said catch attaches at the back-end portion of said carrier, further wherein said catch capable of preventing said ring from slipping through the back end of said carrier. 
     
     
         6 . The tracking device of  claim 5  wherein said ring comprises of rubber. 
     
     
         7 . The tracking device of  claim 5  wherein said pin comprises a breakaway material. 
     
     
         8 . The tracking device of  claim 8  wherein said breakaway material is a plastic. 
     
     
         9 . The tracking device of  claim 1  wherein said transmitter is attached at a surface of said carrier. 
     
     
         10 . The tracking device of  claim 1  wherein said transmitter is enclosed within said carrier. 
     
     
         11 . The tracking device of  claim 1  wherein said weaponized projectile is an arrow. 
     
     
         12 . A method for attaching a tracking device to a weaponized projectile comprising the step of
 placing a carrier at a surface of said weaponized projectile, said carrier capable of mounting a transmitter, further wherein back end portion of said carrier comprises a hook; and   attaching said carrier to said weaponized projectile.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12  prior to attaching said carrier to said weaponized projectile comprises the step of applying an adhesive material at the bottom surface of said carrier. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 12  wherein said carrier further comprises a hole, said hole placed near the front-end side of said carrier. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 14 , further comprising the steps of
 a fastener comprising a pair of prongs, wherein each of said prongs comprises an orifice, said orifice capable of aligning with said hole, further wherein said weaponized projectile mountable in between said prongs; and   inserting a pin through said hole and said orifices.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15  further comprising the step of inserting a ring into said weaponized projectile and said tracking device such that said ring is wrapped around the rear-end portion of said carrier connecting said weaponized projectile with said tracking device; 
     
     
         17 . A method for delivering a tracking device to an animal using a weaponized projectile comprising the step of
 attaching a carrier to said weaponized projectile, said carrier capable of mounting a transmitter, further wherein back end portion of said carrier comprises a hook;   loading said weaponized projectile to a weapon;   releasing said weaponized projectile towards the direction of said animal;   hitting said animal with said weaponized projectile, wherein said hook capable of attaching onto said animal providing enough force in the opposite direction of said weaponized projectile to allow said weaponized projectile to go all the way through; and   leaving said tracking device within said animal.   
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17  prior to attaching said carrier onto said weaponized projectile, further comprising the step of applying an adhesive material at the bottom surface of said carrier. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 17  wherein said carrier further comprises a hole, said hole placed near the front-end side of said carrier. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 19 , further comprising the steps of
 a fastener comprising a pair of prongs, wherein each of said prongs comprises an orifice, said orifice capable of aligning with said hole, further wherein said weaponized projectile mountable in between said prongs; and   inserting a pin through said hole and said orifices.   
     
     
         21 . The method of  claim 20  further comprising the step of inserting a ring into said weaponized projectile and said tracking device such that said ring is wrapped around the rear-end portion of said carrier connecting said weaponized projectile with said tracking device;
