Any rancher who wanted feral hogs GONE, would offer a $10 bounty per hog, and lunch, to any hunting group who wanted a crack at 'em.
That ranch/farm would be free of feral pigs in a few weeks.
They're a tough hunt (pigs are SMART!), but there are a lot of hunters who want the challenge.. they're just not gonna pay $500 a pig!
I'd just go to the butcher rather than spend $500 a pig, and have to clean and package it myself.

The wild horses I'm familiar with run in relatively small herds (although there are multiple herds in the same general area) and with no human intervention thrive on land that would barely support a quarter of the number of cows as horses that are currently there.
There is 1 introduced species that need s to go but everybody thinks it is so cute.
Wild horses overpopulate range land but everyone complains about cattle ranchers.

You need to have good press nobody complains about chukars, pheasants , or partidges
but the collared asian dove which is noisy was put on the anyway you want to kill it list in Oregon'
