I do take issue with this. Indigenous hunting practices are not really all that sustainable, they're just done in smaller amounts so the waste is less visible. We have the opportunity to use technology to live more sustainably in our environment; corpos just don't want to invest in that.
not to mention there was a TON of variety in hunting practices as indigenous populations vary widely.
here is an interesting book about the subject (on my to read list) https://archive.org/details/ecologicalindian0000krec
Not to mention that "indigenous" hunting practices was the cause of extinction of numerous species like the mammoth and similar big mammals.
It is idealisation of primitivism, which is not the answer to our problems in any way.
It may not solve our problems, but have you considered the benefits of feeling smug as hell?
