I think I have spent about as much time outdoors as the next person. Walking in the park trails, hiking the woods. Off roading in my Jeep in back country, and I have never one time seen a cat carcass, or a dead cat other than on the roadway as a traffic casualty. Not one time is 60 years.
In my area, if I see cats lurking by a dumpster or cans, I'll make a point to drive by and dump some healthy dry food, but do not make it a habit or necessarily follow up.
I also would tolerate any number of feral cats in my yard, garden etc. At least until they are weighing down the branches on the trees, they would not bother me a bit.
But, if there are too many cats and they are all starving and need to be neutered, etc, where the heck are the dead ones. No animal eats cat fur, so don't tell me the birds or scavengers get them. Where are they? I see snake carcasses, birds, rodents. No cats.
I don't think there are enough cats.
