Some hunters use horses and dogs to hunt, but they are probably the same ones releasing hogs.
I had a sow and 9 piglets at my game feeder one night, so imagine at least half of those piglets reproducing in a few months. Then those off spring reproducing.
Big problem brewing.
I am sorry to say it but, you have some dumb neighbors. The hogs are getting out of hand as it is. Those people are putting more powder in a time bomb.

With people all over the country suffering property damage from the hogs, I would think that someone would pass laws making it illegal to turn lose or "lose" pigs. A nice hefty fine would work.
