How could a resource become limited?

Although we think of some resources as renewable, resources are always finite and limited.A resource that we think of as renewable could become one that we think of as non-renewable or limited if a tragedy happened. For instance, beef is a renewable resource, because more cattle are born every year. But if a disease wiped out almost all cows worldwide, then the species would be endangered, and the idea and cost of having beef at a meal would change completely... we would start seeing that resource as a limited resource rather than the infinite supply that we sometimes imagine now.A supply could also become sharply limited if it is overused, or our technology isn't good enough to gain access to something, even if it still exists somewhere.
