Video: Humanoid robot scares off capital's wild boar [Poland]

 BBC


You wonder what the wild boar make of the robot: do they think - insofar as they think - that it is a human being, or a machine, or they simply don't know and run away because it seems to be threatening. Pigs are supposed to be very intelligent animals: if they eventually understand  it is merely a machine and they charge at it, the robot had better leg it fast... 

Other than that, the authorities would need armed, versatile robots to round the wild boar up; shoot them dead; take them to the nearest slaughter house; cut them up; and, finally, turn them into sausages. Then, the problem would be sorted - as opposed to displacing it - and it would be win-win
