On some of the partridge pens at a local shoot with a nearby traveller site we set up anti theft tripwires. They are wired to a spring loaded hammer which sets of a shotgun cartidge with 3 wads inside. Its non-lethal but gives whoever tries and steal stuff a nasty bruise depending on the trajectory. We normally have it aimed at shin height but one of them had been knocked by a deer and was at nut height. I forgot about it and ended up on the deck feeling like my nuts were in the next county. It works well because of the loud bang and the shock of the wad hitting you.
