In practice you would have to be careful how you went about catching one,.... if you shot one, or trapped one, then there would be a good chance that it would be taken by the pack,... remember that the dogs will be hunting through extreme hunger in many cases

There is also the chance that the rest of the pack will continue to attack you if you are on foot and close enough.

Not sure which would be the best way,.. maybe enticing them into a building, shutting the door and shooting them all from a distance

Either way, I think care would be needed

getting in amongst them or being out in the open when one shot one of them is obviously out of the question, shooting from cover would be the best bet. then waiting until the pack had left before leaving your cover would also seem in order. they used to shoot feral cats like this , I believe it still happens in places in the med...although not for food. caution would be the key....don't want to catch rabies do we?
