Rick it is really important to know what the boy may want to focus on. If coons you may want some dog proofs. Smaller water animals smaller footholds, etc on up the line.
If they want coyotes I’d strongly suggest learning to use snares if your state allows. You can buy them with deer stops and other options.
Trapping coyotes is a bit more of a learning curve. Getting a successful trapper involved who is willing to teach sure will cut the learning curve.
Don’t forget putting up the fur is a big part of it if not selling on the carcasses or keeping it.
