As long as you treat and inspect it properly, it's like slaughtering a farm pig.
Wild boar is not native to the Americas, it's an invasive species from the old world.
Europeans consider wild boar to be a gourmet meat, because you have a leaner more muscly hog fed on a wild diet with nut and berry flavors in it. Especially if it is salted and cured artisinal ham like Jamón. Back in the frontier days, salted boar was very common food for homesteaders and the like.
Pork BBQ is the specialty down here in the Southeast, and I am personally a big fan of pulled pork, pork ribs, bacon, and pork chops. However, a lot of people are not allowed to eat pork. Either way, the feral swine population is causing millions in agricultural damage and harming the environment, people will pay you to just remove the hogs much like coyotes.
But, they can injure you or even kill you so you gotta be careful.
Across the US, a lot of states are just open season on hogs all year round.
