And above it, suburbs. That are related to cars anyways.

There is still is afaik a deer overpopulation in several regions of US and Canada, due the disappearance of wolves and mountain lions. Deers are eating several kinds of plants in the forest, including the tender young offshoots from tree branches and buds, some plants that provide share for greens to grow, therefore impoverishing ecosystems, only due to their high numbers. Ideally it'd be better if big predators be allowed back into the forests (or if you can find a way to breed some clandestinely, then release them... but good luck with that).

But for all the hurt that a few hunters can do, you got 100x hurt done by cars on a daily basis (like you didn't notice all the road kills on a daily basis or what?), and by residential sprawls to cause a PERMANENT, usually unrecoverable damage to ecosystems, while being intimately related to a consumerist, polluting lifestyle.
