Sounds like hunting is needed. Or a lot of giant Burmese pythons.

Please, no. last time that happened, we brought Nutria here to eat the water lillies that were clogging up everything and taking over and those critters LOVED the hyacinths and Louisiana now we have to find a critter that likes to eat nuttria!
Unfortunately introduced species never do anything but make matters worse-introducing them should never be allowed again, anywhere. The hogs should be hunted for food and people ought to eat them-they are not full of hormones and crap like any domestic hogs that are not free ranged.
That is a simple, natural solution that is used by those not averse to eating wild game other than deer-especially if it is free. Wild hogs are lean pork if they have been raiding crops-not as gamey tasting as when they live completely off what the land provides-and there are many recipes to minimize the gamey flavor, as well-I have two cookbooks of wild game recipes, and I’ve prepared more than one meal of wild hog-my 1st husband was ranch kid like me, and an avid hunter of hogs as well as other game because we preferred our meat without chemicals-shoot hog, field dress, take to slaughterhouse/locker plant to have butchered and packaged for freezer-enjoy...
I hunt deer and other game, but never bagged a hog-I’m as terrified of the things as I would be of a bear-but I have my .270 and feral hog is on my bucket list...
