Wild pigs are an introduced species in Australia. They are destroying the natural habitat of native animals by digging up the soft ground and killing the vegetation.
Capturing the wild pigs and selling them overseas as meat is a cottage industry among the farmers and ranchers of Australia, so I don't see why the RSPCA is having such a snit over someone on a TV show killing one for food. Maybe because he was American? I've seen Steve Irwin capturing pigs on The Crocodile Hunter several times and never heard a peep from them.
