I've heard of wild horses, and burros in the west, but I've never heard of wild cattle except in Australia. They protect the horses and burros even though it is known they destroy the evironment so why shoot the cattle?
But of course you would need to get rid of any source of food if you had plans to starve the people to death.
I lived in New Mexico for much of my life, and hunted a lot of the state. I've never seen one in my life. A lot of the state lands I hunted have cattle on them, but they belong to ranchers that have the grazing leases on the land. I never hunted the Gila Wilderness so maybe they do have some there, but I don't see the need to kill them and leave the meat laying to rot.
Open season on feral hogs around here it’s been my main hunting/food supply for years but they are hard to track down around here lots of swamp and forest to hide in.
I have a hard time missing them around my parts. Big black hogs running across the roads at night and if you connect, there goes your front end. 150 lbs of hog meat in the road makes a big dent at 45 mph. They wreak havoc on the golf courses and groves; they're quite destructive.

I've heard of them in south Texas, but I agree,no point in shooting them.
The feral cattle problem is real. They should be helicopter machine gunning the feral horses too though.
Don't forget the hogs. They are much worse of a problem.
