There are feral pigs in QLD, which have their own hunting culture. We were give a copy of Bacon Busters magazine: http://www.sportingshootermag.com.au/news/new-bacon-busters-.... In it we learned that real men hunt pigs, real real men hunt pigs with a bow, and real real real men hunt pigs with a knife (joking, of course). Kevlar armour can be purchased for your pig dogs (chest and throat). And when you fell your pig, take a photo with a stick propping open it's mouth... unless you have an empty beer can to do the job.

But yes, while there are feral pigs in QLD, it's a bit much to expect him to hunt them with a stone-tipped spear just to appease some random naysayer on the internet. I mean, the guy builds a tiled-roof house with chimney and underfloor heating using nothing but the stuff he pulls from the forest by hand, and somehow that's not enough - apparently he has to risk his life attacking a feral pig with stone tools to get 'cred'...
