They will prey on the piglets and smaller hogs. Will leave the larger hogs alone. They also are pretty fond of fawns. Bears and 100 pound+ timber wolves in packs are some of the reasons hogs have trouble getting established to any degree in our area. A pack of 8 or 10 timber wolves makes short work of even the meanest hog.
I would not expect them to dent your hog population. We have a healthy bear population but they require a large area per animal typically 2+ square miles per animal.

Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil.

Ten years ago he showed me a pic of a black bear on his trail cam.
