"Dont overestimate the wild game availability. There will be lots of hungry people."
Yep. The elk population is already getting very low up here due to years of drought and poaching. Predators (mountain lions, bears, coyotes, etc.) are getting obviously hungrier and exposing themselves more often in broad daylight, because ruminants haven't had enough to eat for a long time (and poaching).
Back in the Ozarks, a long time ago, folks told me that after the Great Depression went on for a time, wild animals weren't much seen by people at all. They weren't extinct, but they were so rare as to very seldom be seen by anyone.

BTW, there are many millions of prairie dogs, though, and they carry the Bubonic Plague (on the Rockies).
