"The attacks bears in Japan are increasing at an alarming rate, and so the town of Takikawa [about 570 miles from Tokio] “impaled” a robot wolf as a deterrent,” the BBC said.
“The robot wolf was originally designed to keep the wild livestock away from the farmlands, but now usesfrom local governments and managers of highways, golf courses and pig farms".
Digital Trends describes the "Wolf Beast" as a creature "with glowing red eyes and protruding fangs."
The monster wolf emits a menacing roar if it spots a bear nearby. It also has a set of flashing LED lights on its tail and can move its head to make it look more lifelike… The design of the robot is based on a real wolf that roamed Asia more than 100 years ago before the species became completely extinct.
Japan's NHK news agency reported earlier this month that bear attacks in the country are at their highest level since records began in 2007. The environment ministry reported 53 cases of injuries as a result of such attacks from April to July 2023. .At least one person has died after one attack in Hokkaido in May.
