This mod adds a Mob Capturing Device and a Mob Capturing Device Launcher.
The capturing device can be right clicked on most entities to capture them inside, right click again to release them.
The capturing device launcher can be used to capture or release mobs from afar. It has a capturing, and a releasing mode, indicated by the tooltip.
And before you ask, yes it does work on endermen.
While in capturing mode, the launcher will attempt to fire any unused capturing devices that you have. When an entity is struck, it is removed from the world and placed inside if it is valid for capturing. If no entity is found then it drops as an item.
In release mode, the launcher will fire any filled devices from inside the inventory into the world. Whether it hits an entity or a block, it will spawn the mob with all of it's saved data.

Improvement, idea
Add a configurable option.
Players can only use a mobCatcher to move villagers for example on very long distance. (Yes, it's very long and boring to move a villager on 30_000 distance with rails). But it's cool to do it on small distance.
Explanation of how it works
- the player catches a villager. The coordinates of the player are : 50 / 71 / 80
- the player moves ...
- The player arrives where he wants to put the villager (coordinates: 90 / 87 / 80
= The player can't place the villager because the block distance between the two is too small. He will have to use rails

In reply to sithgamer1234:
when forge makes a 1.17 version for mods
I can also verify that entering water with a mob in a capture ball causes you to disconnect from a server and unable to rejoin with an "internal serve error" error message. Removing the mod from client and server allowed me to join again
