Nah.  I just mention wolves as I farm them for furs. :)

Are we talking about the same kind of mobs?  I talk about the lvl 100 
elite mobs with +800k hp in NW Nagrand.

When I trap ordinary mobs I tag them so theyre in front of me, lay down 
the trap on the top of the mob and attack them until theyre below 50%. 
Your trap will catch them at this point.  So no need to run around and 
kite those.
The elite mobs are quite harder.  Theyre stunnable/slowable though.  So 
once theyre close to 50% stun or slow them, run through them just by 
pressing forward (no mouse running), lay down your trap and run a few 
more steps so you have the trap between you and the mob.  Thats how you 
make a perfect line. :)
