The person that actually hunts for sustenance- as in actually having to LIVE off the food garnered during hunting is so exceedingly small as to be non-existent. Nearly all people who hunt do so as a sport which gains them a few steaks over the course of the year as they primarily rely on the local grocery store.

As a vegetarian and non-hunter though, some species can repopulate so fast as to be invasive. Michigan white tail deer are like this. Crashes with deer in Michigan in 2022 increased nearly 13% from the year before. In 2022 alone, there were 58,984 vehicle-deer crashes, up from 52,218 in 2021. Last year, 11 people were killed in deer crashes, including five people in vehicles and six people riding motorcycles! Hunting brings these numbers down.
