You have enough land to not worry about neighbors. Shoot every single one you see, hook the carcasses to your tractor and dump them in a ravine.
And yeah, I know you want some sort of kumbaya animal protection zone. These are feral pigs, a dangerous nuisance animal that destroys habitat for the desirable species. You don't even need a hunting license as a landowner to kill them. As many as you can.

Oh, I couldn't do that! I just don't have the heart........I would invite some of my hunting friends over on a search and destroy instead......and I have identified, asked various FB friends precisely for that.
Here in Arizona we have javelinas which not are pigs but they act similarly. They are smart animals and two of them will often team up to topple a trash bin. One stands at the base and leans into it while the other pushes at the top to flip it on its side. Besides fetid trash and coffee grounds, javelina also love red yucca roots, in fact it may be their favorite food treat. Anyone foolish enough to plant red yucca where the critters can get to it will soon find it gone and their landscape cratered.

I know that they are nuisance pests but they are still animals with edible meat.
It would just be a shame to waste their lives when they could produce table fare.
I like your idea of having friends that hunt come over and don’t think that you will have any problem with that, in-fact you might be in a position to chose the best ones for your situation as opposed to having people come over that were less desirable.
On the other hand if you had the equipment to dig I guess using the carcasses as compost wouldn’t really be a waste.
I really want to get me one of them mini excavators.
They sell a nice Chinese diesel one for about 10k and it’s really real life tempting .

About all you can do with big ol tough boar is sausage. They reproduce 3 times a year with a litter each time. You can't commercially sell it unless you have it inspected and packaged for each animal. In no time you'll be way behind so that's why we just shoot em because at that point they are just giant rats.
You can't really compost with it as you have to dig it deep enough other animals can't dig it up, and they will.

Besides, you never use meat products in compost anyway.
It does make sense that they would be too big to compost.
Never using meat to compost?
I’ve done this for years in my gardens with fish guts and carcasses and it works great.
Where did you get the idea that you couldn’t use meat for compost?
Didn’t the pilgrims learn this from the Indians?
I’ve shoveled compost over bad meat in my compost area numerous times.
I haven’t suffered from it and my dogs haven’t dug it up.
