Actually feral pig hunting at least in CA is akin to pest control as depredating feral hogs can cause a lot of damage to croplands and domestic stock.

Texas is home to the largest feral hog population in the United States, with an estimated 2.6 million hogs statewide. Hunting Licenses:
  • Resident: A general hunting license is needed to hunt on public land, and can be purchased for $25. No license is needed for depredating feral hogs, if a landowner (resident or non-resident) or landowner’s agent or lessee is taking feral hogs causing depredation on the landowner’s land. Otherwise, a hunting license and the landowner’s permission is required on private land.
  • Non Resident: A general hunting license is needed to hunt on public land, and can be purchased for $315. No license is needed for depredating feral hogs, if a landowner (resident or non-resident) or landowner’s agent or lessee is taking feral hogs causing depredation on the landowner’s land. Otherwise, a hunting license and the landowner’s permission is required on private land.

Hog Hunting Season: There are no seasons; feral hogs may be taken year-round.
Night Hunting: Night hunting with a spotlight is allowed on private land, but the local game warden must be notified beforehand. There are certain laws which prohibit using artificial light where deer are known to range.
Baiting: Yes
Limit:No bag limit
CA's is a little more stringent accounting-wise; but again there is no bag limit:

Hunting Licenses:
  • Resident: Residents must have a valid hunting license, which can be purchased annually for $47.01, as well as a wild pig license tag, which can be purchased for $22.42.
  • Non Resident: Non-residents must have a valid hunting license, which can be purchased for $163.65 annually, for $47.01 for 2-day license, or for $22.42 for a 1-day license, as well as a non-resident wild pig license tag, which can be purchased for $77.34

Hog Hunting Season: All residents and non-residents hunting feral hogs must have a wild pig license tag. Upon the killing of any pig, the tag holder shall immediately fill out all portions of the tag including the report card completely, legibly, and permanently, and cut out or punch out and completely remove notches or punch holes for the month and date of the kill. The pig license tag shall be attached to the carcass of the wild pig. The report card portion shall be immediately returned to the department.
Night Hunting: General Season
Baiting: Feral hog hunting must take place one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset.
Limit: No
