English term or phrase: directed take, hunting and live removal
Conservation text, mainly talking about cetaceans. When describing the threats to cetaceans, the following two terms are listed:

1. directed take - hunting
2. directed take - live removal

For "directed take" I have "cacería dirigida", but I'm not 100% sure. If I choose this translation then term 1 would end up something like "cacería dirigida - caza".

I am not having any luck finding a suitable translation for "live removal".

acoso organizado/dirigido, caza y captura en vida


Explanation:
Para evitar la repetición de la palabra "caza" se me ocurre traducir "take" por acoso/agresión/ataque/persecución.
Para "live removal" la opción de Juan Manuel es perfecta.
Sería:
Acoso organizado - caza
Acoso organizado - captura en vida

agree  isabelmurill (X): la segunda parte me encanta, para la primera sugeriría también "acecho", suena más a "animal" que acoso
