Feral, no. Humans without resources will do what they need to in order to support our families. Nothing feral about that. Doing what you have to in order to keep stability and feed your kids is and should be encouraged.

The cities are full of competent, intelligent people who can and will be able to support themselves, but the thing is that there just isn't enough ability to produce or bring in food without the support of the rest of the farming areas delivering food on massive trips with huge trucks. It's not the people that are bad, we are the ones who formed those cities and built ourselves from the ground up, it's the nature of the changing environment.
