tbh I have been entertaining the idea that Grimm exist in something like the law of conservation of mass...that when a grim "dies", a new grimm is generated somewhere. If you apply this theory, then no grimm are "born" and grimm cannot die off or become extinct(as they always number the same).

That being said there is no evidence for this theory other than the fact there is no evidence against it and that it could explain both why the bodies disappear and why no-one has ever witnessed a grim "birth".

other theories would be that Grimm feed on/are borne of negative emotions and could theoretically become extinct if a utopia was created where no-one had those emotions(which would never happen unless in dystopia form because the ancient Grim would not allow it).
