As a rancher myself, I can't condone traps. They're unethical in my opinion.

In the vast majority of cases, yes, they end up harmed regardless of trap type.
Even if released, there's cases where bruising to the leg effects their ability to hunt or defend.

The also have cases where they're attacked in the traps, and can't defend themselves.

If the person isn't diligent in checking the traps, the animal is exposed to the elements and die of dehydration/hunger.

Then there's the issue of non target animals being caught, including dogs, etc.

Most people shoot them while they're still in the trap, its the same reason, I don't agree with live trapping, I don't find it ethical to terrify an animal in a trap until it eventually meets its death by because somebody walks up and shoots it.
Almost nobody relocates them, because it doesn't work; they're territorial animals. If they're dropped off in other territory, they can be brutally killed by rivals.

As an alternative,
You can either get guardian dogs that will keep them at bay, because they won't mess with large guardian dogs, or if shooting them is something that has to be done for whatever reason, then, setting up and shooting at a distance is preferable, but trapping an animal and allowing it to be stuck terrified the entire time until it's killed, as a rancher myself, I don't agree with this method.

If you don't like that, too damn bad.
We are the stewards of God's creatures, and they should be handled with respect. Life should be respected, not treated with cavalier attitudes.

The coyote was like “oh, understandable”

[kenrichter]

In the mid 80s we had a coyote problem. The game and fish department offered to catch and sterilize the coyote to help the predation of sheep... our neighbor told them " they ain't fuckin my sheep their eaten them"

[paulmccoy]

It was then the Coyote realized he needed to go stay with his cousin who chases roadrunners

When the nightclub bouncer tells you it's time to go

[ferndawg]

coyote was put on a bus to martha's vineyard.

[matthewscanlan]

The fact that he didn't kill it there and then, and had the balls to pick it up tells me this was a catch and release. It also looked like he was using a trap with padded offset jaws which really don't hurt the animal.

[koolaids]

Bro was about to give up and accept domestication 💀

[LoneWolf_RO]

As a coyote i can confirm this guy just releases us...

[roebuckrowhammer]

They coyote was like, “whatever you do.” Don’t kill me!

[urman]

Cant blame the farmer for wanting to protect his cattle farm.

[erniesanchez]

People are like, spare him, save him, omg poor thing ! Then the next day it kills your cat .

[milaa.]

wait did he kill the coyote or something I’m sad and confused 😭

[dylanrendon]

Hey I respect what you did there. You spared him, most people don't. You're a good person and may God bless you.

[shazlee]

Can't blame a wild animal that just wants to survive!

[AzazelsWings]

You're fighting a losing battle, just keep a few livestock guardian dogs with your herd, instead. Coyotes are opportunistic feeders, they'll look for food elsewhere
Add: the way he handles that coyote is pretty badass. I think they're beautiful animals, but I'm scared of them.

[rarad.]

How can you not feel bad for them being who they are That broke my heart

[jcgalmiche]

Dude walked that coyote into a room with plastic on the floor like goodfellas
