The hog population is growing, and they are moving closer and closer to residential areas in their search for food. I have a friend who took video of hogs destroying lawns in a subdivision in Tyler with million dollar homes. He couldn't shoot because of city ordinance.

I think events of feral hog and human interaction are going to become more frequent in the coming years.
Absolutely. This will happen again. Maybe some family will be in a state park on a picnic, and a 9 year old kid will be torn to ribbons by some boar. Eventually, it'll be like seeing signs on the beach warning people about sharks, only they'll say something like, "Danger: feral hogs." It'll be a feral hog version of "Jaws." I'm surprised it hasn't happened before now.
