"Poison pilled" on Hexbear

"https://www.fieldandstream.com/conservation/researchers-develop-poison-bait-feral-pigs/ *According to Louisiana’s Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, the state’s feral hog population is estimated at 700,000. Due to feral hogs’ high reproductive rates, 70 to 75 percent of the population must be killed to control the population. Louisiana reports that the hunter harvest is less than half of that objective, meaning populations are growing. Feral hogs are found in all 64 Louisiana parishes. Trapping and hunting, including day and night shooting by private landowners, plus aerial gunning by nuisance wildlife-control specialists, are used.*"

What is the correct vegan way to handle these sorts of overpopulation problems that we've created--other than "complete societal overhaul"/"return to monke"/"we shouldn't have caused this shit to happen in the first place"?

    At a certain point, you end up either imposing a value set onto nature, justifying carnivory to the extent that it exists in nature, or having separate moral frameworks for humans and for nonhuman animals. Not saying that any option is correct or superior.
