Simus have started out in much shorter supply than Westerns, and they just aren't as popular or as easy to work with.
The populations of simus that have declined or disappeared were lost due to habitat mismanagement, not collection. In the areas where simus are collected, they are very abundant, and they are killed on the road by the thousands every year. The number collected is infinitesimal by comparison.
