But the boar won't bring trouble to you if you leave him alone.

You may have pussy pigs in CO, but I've had these suckers actually challenge me for cattle feed. They smell it, they want it and they're willing to fight for it. Didn't ask them if they were willing to die for it because they I wouldn't get an answer and it annoys the pigs.
Kidding aside, it's no fun looking over your shoulder all the time. Never walking outside after dark without turning on the floodlights because they skulk in the dark trying to catch a chicken or duck sleeping. Or trying to do normal chores while trying to keep one hand fairly free.
Well golly, she was just protecting her babies, doesn't cut it when Mompig brings her brood onto your turf like Saddams human shields.
They should die like pigs. :p
