Generally you shouldn't shoot wild animals with air guns since they might cause permanent harm. The non-lethal methods listed in your link are likely to be both more efficient and less harmful for the animal. You should use whatever is recommended by the local authorities. Air rifles will cause serious wounds/wounds that might get infected. Meaning there will likely be legal consequences for you in case you use air guns on wild animals. Particularly while visiting national parks and similar.
