I agree factory farming is terrible but this wasteful and gruesome killing is also terrible.

Definition of vegetarian diet might be a bit stretched here.

Either way you don’t condone killing all deer in a certain forest, do you? So much “game” that there won’t be any one healthy animal left?

Of course not, but I don't think that is what happened here. And I am not sure it's wasteful, if they eat all the meat the will eat less of other meats. Gruesome for sure, but not more gruesome than a slaughterhouse.
Did you read the article? They have to throw lots of those carcasses into landfills as they are running out of ways to handle, store and consume that much meat.
I missed that, then it’s of course terrible. Under normal situations that is not the case.
