Depends on your definition of 'destroyed'. For example in the episode where they head to the Island of the Dolls in Mexico many dolls are seen in various states of decay from being left out exposed to the elements for years, and a few other episodes have similar bits where they just find stuff that's been left like that.

Though in a few episodes plane wreckage is shown, and they have a very close call in one episode when they're flying at low altitude and the roof comes off the plane.

While no animal dies on camera, they do use things like chicken or other meat as bait for certain things they're hunting and they do show the carcass being hung up or otherwise placed in the trap.
