daijr (獲る): 狩りや漁で獲物を捕らえる。
「捕る」は“つかまえる。捕球する”の意。「蝶(ちよう)を捕る」「トンボを捕る」「外野フライを捕る」
「獲る」は“狩りや漁などで獲物をつかまえる”の意。「捕る」とも書く。「熊を獲る」「魚を獲る」
  Comments:
獲る isn't used for balls or insects. I think it should be a separate entry (as in daijr).

Just thinking about the various とるs:
We have entries for 取る, 捕る/獲る[iK], 穫る, etc. etc.
Daijr has 捕る in with 取る, along with others.
GG5 has a main 取る entry, and another combining 取る/穫る/獲る.
Based on this, I think the "iK" can come off this one.
Also, the 魚を捕る entry probably can be extended by 魚を取る (13M hits) , 魚を獲る, 魚を穫る, etc. all of which get significant hits. See  1878480.
