I remember going to the Indiana state museum. One exhibit claimed almost all non-domestic fauna had been killed off by the early 20th century. They started reintroducing deer and other species in the '40s and there was a deer season when I was there in the '80s. Farmers absolutely hate any animal that they can't send to market. Some eastern states have reintroduced elk. In this state wolves reintroduced themselves and that's rather controversial. Grizzly bears never were eliminated but they've started increasing their range, also controversial. There are a number of bison ranches but the free roaming bison at Yellowstone are also a problem due to the possibility of brucellosis transmission. It keeps life interesting.
