1015 lbs? This thing would kill someone. It's better dead. The meat is probably not even edible given its 10+ year life.

This rhino-sized creature with tusks would decimate any perceived threat to it's poor eyesight, judgement, or yes, carnivorous tendencies.

I'm not making many friends with this post, but it is a PIG. A renewable resource at man's disposal. Release a domesticated pig, and it will revert to wild in no time. Thats how these places operate. No wild pigs are killed. They are all early plants from commercial growers.

Hunting is not bad. Many areas require commercial hunts to keep certain populations in check. Even the Florida alligator has a season now do to its growing population. States like the income from hunters. Local economies benefit too.
