Not really. There are only a few that are more rewarding. Most of the time you'll have a 33% chance (the numbers are just made up) to get an item in a capture quest, then you get an 11% chance with each carve, which adds up to 33%.

Also, if you add the costs of shock traps, tranqs, and so forth they're more expensive.
