    It is a small, almost maneless, yellowish-brown subspecies[4] with distinctive white whiskers extending from the corners of the mouth to the cheeks.[2]

    That is not what we have here.

    We have these

    Feral pigs can be dangerous to people, particularly when the pigs travel in herds with their young, and should be avoided when possible. Feral pigs living in the United States have been known to attack without provocation and fatally injure human beings.

        Again, Japanese boars are much much smaller than the boar we have here. Think game of thrones dangerous. They get to 400-600lbs and they’re practically solid muscle and have pretty much no natural predators, the ones in Japan are tiny compared to the ones here in the usa and parts of South America.
