That's scary when you realize that domestic pigs can interbreed with them.

 

Imagine Russian boar mean combined with domestic hog size.  Feral hogs can be dangerous enough without giving them that big of a mean streak and tusks like a Russian boar.

 

Part of Texas has a breeding population of warthogs. The good news is that they can't interbreed with either domestic pigs or javelinas.

A zoologist could tell you for sure. But feral hogs can get huge over several generations in the wild without crossbreeding.
