Nasty nasty creatures. Carry a ton of zoonotic diseases. They are big leptospirosis carriers here in Hawaii. Unfortunately our ranch has a ton of them. I see them almost daily. The management shoots them when they get too prolific, (or if some fool feeds a baby pig because it’s cute and then it loses it’s fear of humans and grows up to be a danger.)
Most folks around here hunt them with dogs, but after a horse was attacked and killed by hunting dogs a few years back the ranch has cracked down on keeping folks with dogs off the property. (Idiot owner left the dogs running loose after it mauled the horse. They were wearing tracking and ID collars that led authorities back to the owners.)
Give them a wide berth and you should be okay. Hopefully the land owner can get them all. They are considered invasive species and pest in many areas, with no limits on how many you can bag, or when you can hunt them.
