Mother nature looks after itself, and if man would stop freakin messing with the natural balance of things, and killing all their natural predators and destroying habitat there wouldn't be a problem! That's my opinion.
Interesting idea. But one must wonder just where "man" would live without destroying animal habitat? As for killing natural predators - well, personally I prefer to live in an area where my children and dogs can play in the back yard without having to worry about bears, coyotes, and wolves. But, hey, if I am a minority, I suppose I could learn to deal.

I suppose we could step back and let "nature" deal with this large population of deer that has outgrown it's habitat. But. Have you ever watched a herd of deer starve to death?

FYI - man has been a natural predator since the time of the caveman.
