"Even in your example, we might notice that even though there are N licenses doled out, the deer population continues to rise.  It would be over-intervention to simply issue more licenses. Perhaps the people getting the licenses are mostly an aging population who don't hunt much anymore but have some semi-automated approach to getting a license?"

A population estimation input comes from tagging stations relative to issued licenses by category of deer, so they can & do close-the-loop by way of enforcement.  
The population estimation techniques require some assumptions, of course.
