The practice of capturing wild canids, specifically those belonging to the Vulpes genus, often involves the strategic deployment of enclosures or devices designed to restrain the animal. This technique can serve various purposes, ranging from wildlife management and research to protection of livestock and property.
Employing methods to secure these animals has a long history, stemming from the need to control their populations in agricultural areas and protect vulnerable domestic animals. Historically, the rationale included mitigating economic losses caused by predation. Current applications also encompass scientific endeavors aimed at studying their behavior, health, and population dynamics in a controlled environment.
