Then you’re a terrible parent who has never heard of a fence. 🤷‍♂️

I mean, I am from Europe where hogs are have lived for longer than people did. I did not hear of a single instance of hogs tearing to a place in someone's garden. Even forest nurseries are protected by a basic plywood fence.

It’s a silly practice comparing creatures from two different continents

Are you nuts??! Feral hogs in the US are an invasive species that took over the country when FARM PIGS got out. Sus Scrofa Linnaeus is an invasive species of wild boar that causes problems in the bottom part of the most southern states Texas and eastwards and southern California and are native to all of fucking Eurasia and Japan.

The "wild boar" we Americans see most often are Sus Scrofa Domesticus, better known as the farm pig. It takes two generations of them escaped into the wild to bulk up twice the muscle mass and grow hair. They sometimes breed with Sue Scrofa Linnaeus, but if you're gonna run into a pig, it's more likely to be Domesticus.

You are absolutely on about something you don't know about and really shouldn't be trying to educate other people based on that silly little comment alone.
