      Quick searching suggests she hunts them with the traps but has to release when she’s over her quota or the season is over.

        Why does she hunt them? Are the overpopulated or intrusive or something?

        Edit to add: here’s what I found after a few iterations of searching:

        Skye Goode is a woman who engages in a regular practice of trapping coyotes around her home, where they pose a threat to the environment.

        Unlike other trappers, she uses a humane, modern-day foothold trap that is strong enough to trap a variety of different animals but does not break any bones and does not draw blood.

        So she doesn’t hunt wildcats. Where’d you get your info?

          Story I found is that she hunts coyotes and that these traps are humane, not breaking bones or drawing blood.
