Jeepers, I’d run from that thing.

So a bull market for bears and a bear market for wolves, then.

bear attacks cause sales of animatronic scarecrow

not exactly a robot, more like a pipe with fur on with speaker attachment

They are talking about 50 orders, so yeah, that's probably a record for a mom and pop shop..

It's like a hi-tech animatronic from a Spirit Halloween store.

This is just going to naturally select for bears that can take down a terminator. Do we really want that?

I just wanted to see what this thing looks like and does.

It's... Interesting.

When will humans learn?!

20 years from now people will just be buying robot bears due to record robot wolf attacks...

We need to stop the cycle of Japanese attack robots based on animals.

/s

Of course Japan decided to use robots. But why not use a big dog instead? Maybe it's a humanitarian concern since they'd be facing off with bears...

Oh. It's a fucking robot yokai-cyber-demon-dog: pure nightmare fuel. They're clearly on to something here.

Did we learn nothing from Horizon!? Quick, someone get Aloy

The headline flows nicely with the whole "Is this reality, or just a very stressful fever dream?" vibe that is 2026.

i'm amazed that there are still so much bears in Japan, and that they kill people on a regular basis, and that the japaneze society is ok about that.

If a single death ocurred in my country because of a single wild animal, the whole species would be eradicated by both civilians and the government working in concert. I've even heard about people in my country cutting tons of trees overnight because one motorbike smashed on one tree and "it was the trees' fault" (sic)

When your mate is like "who's my pretty little girl?" and giving their dog mouth kisses

Good lord!!

The Toddler Terrorizer 1000 sold out, eh?

Two questions:

1. can I control it?
2. is One Man And His Dog still going?

Video unrelated.

I want one
