Ranching, conventional or regenerative, is incompatible with wildlife. Meat production requires deforestation, fencing and predator extermination to protect grazers from harm so that they can be profitably sold.
"To protect their cows from predators and disease, or simply to ensure that they have access to food and water, ranchers across the country have supported wolf hunts, vulture and wild horse culls, and the deployment of cyanide bombs." - The Myth of Regenerative Cattle Grazing | The New Republic
"It is difficult to count the number of wild animals killed in the service of ranching interests by government bodies [...], but about a million animals per year is the federal government’s own estimate." - The Myth of Regenerative Cattle Grazing | The New Republic
There are also the other wildlife death cause by the destruction of the habitat, reduction of food and water sources, and pollution caused by meat production.
White Oak Pastures grazing methods require 2.5 times more land than conventional meat production. More regenerative meat means less wildlife.
To answer your question, meat production is way worst than plant production when it comes to violence and death to animals. Meat production also negatively impact wildlife and ecosystems' heath and diversity.
So yes, plant production is superior.
