Video: Why is a Chinese robot chasing wild boars in Poland?
A popular Chinese robot is going viral for a video showing it chasing wild boars, but many aren’t sure why that happened.
The robot itself, nicknamed Edward Warchocki, is a Unitree G1 model available for public purchase that popped up in Poland.
‘Older ladies or gentlemen love talking with him.’
The Chinese-made robots go for a whopping $23,809 for the basic model, all the way up to $58,365 for the “ultimate edition.”
Recently, this particular model was seen running through the streets of Warsaw, Poland, chasing wild boars. While hilarious, there is actual serious context behind the content.
Major Polish cities like Krakow have endured a sprawling wild boar issue — even in city centers — for years, resulting in authorities urging their population to resist feeding the somewhat approachable beasts.
Other cities have resorted to planting flowers with vivid colors and sweet scents in order to deter the pigs.
Since at least 2019, there have been warnings of disease allegedly spread by the animals, resulting in calls for culls and elimination of thousands of them that have reportedly carried illnesses like African swine fever and Hepatitis E.
Enter Edward the robot, who was recently seen shooing the animals away from downtown Warsaw.

As reported by Interesting Engineering, Edward is a Chinese humanoid that operates mostly on its own. It is not controlled remotely and is described as unscripted. Therefore it reacts dynamically to its surroundings and engages in adaptive dialogue in Polish using AI.
Edward is most popular with Polish Boomers, its owners say, as they are excited to interact with a robot for the first time.
Radosław Grzelaczyk and business partner Bartosz Idzik started in cryptocurrency, but they now try to create viral videos with their robo-friend.
“Personally, the sight of this robot chasing boars does not surprise me anymore,” Grzelaczyk told TVP World.
“Older ladies or gentlemen love talking with him,” Grzelaczyk added. “These people are always delighted that they lived to see times in which robots move through the streets.”

In China, the robots have been shown to be capable of advanced feats. Last year, they competed in a half-marathon and were showcased in February performing kung-fu, gymnastics, and weapons work.
The focus during China’s annual CCTV Spring Festival gala was innovation in multi-robot coordination and fault recovery, referring to a robot’s ability to get up after tumbling down. China showed the robots in choreographed performances and dancing as well.
Definitive warning signs of spying from Chinese robot manufacturers exist too. Axios reported on two security researchers who reported on Unitree Robotics allegedly pre-installing a backdoor on its Go1 robot dogs that allowed for customer surveillance.
Other research warned about exploits that allowed for remote takeover of the humanoid bots, among other models.
Neither Edward nor his owners responded to Return’s request for comment.

Eric Swalwell reaps what he sowed during Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation
Disgraced Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell said the women accusing Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct “deserve to be heard” during the 2018 confirmation hearings. Now a California woman is accusing Swalwell of raping her that same year.
Lonna Drewes has become the fifth woman to accuse Swalwell of sexual misconduct, alleging that the former gubernatorial candidate raped her eight years ago. In a press conference Tuesday, Drewes accused Swalwell of spiking her drink before Swalwell brought her to his hotel and allegedly raped her.
‘I did not want to live anymore.’
Swalwell infamously demanded every one of Kavanaugh’s accusers be heard, saying they “deserve for their allegations to be investigated.” Eight years later, Swalwell is saying the allegations against him are false and unfounded, eventually dropping out of the governor’s race and resigning from Congress.
“He raped me, and he choked me. And while he was choking me, I lost consciousness, and I thought I died,” Drewes said. “I did not consent to any sexual activity.”

Drewes said she did not report the incident at the time but cited other forms of documentation, like her handwritten calendar and therapy sessions at a sexual assault center, to substantiate the accusations. At the time of the alleged encounter, Drewes was in a “committed” relationship, and Swalwell’s wife was pregnant.
“It had a profound impact on my mental health,” Drewes added. “I self-medicated in an unhealthy way. I did not want to live anymore. I cried all the time for years. At the time, I was in a dating relationship with a boyfriend I was fully committed to. I’ve never cheated in my life, and I would never have engaged in a consensual sexual encounter with Eric Swalwell.”

‘Truly sick individuals’: ICE arrests convicted murderer and sexual predators
On Monday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents nabbed several criminal illegal aliens whom Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin described as “truly sick individuals.”
A DHS press release, obtained exclusively by Blaze News, highlighted ICE’s recent arrest of five illegal immigrants across the country who were taken into federal custody.
‘We will not allow criminal illegal aliens to roam free in our communities and terrorize innocent Americans.’
These individuals have been “convicted of voluntary manslaughter, lewd battery on a child, attempted statutory rape of a child, and other horrific crimes,” the press release read.
The DHS stated that nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens with prior criminal charges or convictions.
Immigration officers captured Rodolfo Sanchez, an illegal alien from Mexico who was previously convicted of voluntary manslaughter and burglary of a building in Houston, Texas.

Immigration agents also arrested Derekson Lett, an illegal alien from Grenada who was convicted of robbery in Staten Island, New York. A local report from SILive.com stated that in 2015, Lett, who was 26 years old at the time, had tried to rob a prostitute who was allegedly fatally shot by Lett’s accomplice in a motel. He was sentenced to 11 years in prison.

“Yesterday, ICE arrested some truly sick individuals, including murderers, pedophiles, sexual predators, and violent thugs,” Mullin stated. “Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S. We will not allow criminal illegal aliens to roam free in our communities and terrorize innocent Americans.”

Finalist for Minnesota Teacher of the Year withdraws after perverse photos unearthed
One of 11 finalists for Teacher of the Year award in Minnesota withdrew after obscene videos and images were published by Alpha News.
Former Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City School District 6th-grade teacher Thomas Rosengren is no longer a finalist after published images showed him simulating sex acts with two other men while dressed in bondage paraphernalia.
‘It’s feeding time on the farm. Cowboy Tommy is feeding the six piglets and bull.’
Last week, Alpha News reached out to Education Minnesota, which ran the Teacher of the Year award, but did not receive a response. Days later, Education Minnesota updated its webpage to indicate that Rosengren had withdrawn.
Rosengren worked as a social studies and earth science teacher in the Grove City district as well as a theater director and reportedly a coach.
Although he has withdrawn from the Teacher of the Year contention, Rosengren won the title of Mr. Minneapolis Eagle in 2019, which celebrated his “bratty boy” status in the leather and gay community.
An image of Rosengren in the “Mr. Minneapolis Eagle” leather sash can still be viewed on the social media account for the Twin Cities Gay Scene website.
Alpha News published numerous images publicly available from the Eagle contest showing Rosengren wearing BDSM attire and posing sexually with two other males.
In one image, Rosengren holds up a sign reading, “It’s feeding time on the farm. Cowboy Tommy is feeding the six piglets and bull.”
Other images showed him simulating oral and anal sex with the other leather-clad men.
Alpha News published images published on his Facebook page showing him wearing a “cowboy hat, leather speedo, and bondage straps.”

Initially district Superintendent Kip Lynk declined to answer questions posed by the news outlet and released a brief statement.
“Under the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act, Mr. Rosengren is entitled to data privacy protections, and without his consent, there is limited information I can share,” he wrote.
After Alpha News published the expose, Lynk said Rosengren was no longer employed at the district.

Dad rushes home to protect child, pregnant wife from unhinged male screaming death threats at door, demanding it be opened
A Northern California father rushed home to protect his 5-year-old child and pregnant wife from a male stranger who was caught on the Fairfield home’s doorbell camera screaming death threats and demanding that the homeowner open the door.
Video from last Tuesday’s terrifying incident shows the male standing on the porch of the home in the 1700 block of Burbank Court in Fairfield and talking to the homeowner through a Ring doorbell camera and demanding entry, KTVU-TV reported.
‘Open the door. This is my neighborhood. … Now. Or I’ll f**king end you. Do you understand me?’
Fairfield is about 45 minutes southwest of Sacramento.
“I just want to make sure that everything’s OK,” the man is heard saying, the station reported. “There seems to be something going on.”
“What do you mean?” the homeowner replied while repeatedly asking the male to leave.
The homeowner had just left his residence minutes before, KTVU said. However, he was able to observe and talk to the male stranger — and immediately returned home, police said.
Things only got scarier.
The male is seen on video kicking the door and shouting, “Where’s your daughter? Who’s in there with you? Open this f**king door, or I’m breaking it down!” KTVU said.
Things also got downright bizarre.
At one point, the male identified himself as a fictional wizard and private investigator from an urban fantasy series, the station said.
“My name is Harry Dresden, motherf**ker,” the male is heard saying on camera. “Open the door. This is my neighborhood. … Now. Or I will f**king end you. Do you understand me?”
Soon the male pulled down a decorative doorbell, repeatedly bashed the door with it, and continued to demand to be let inside “or I’ll f**king kill you,” KTVU said.
All the while, the homeowner’s pregnant wife and 5-year-old child were inside the home, but they managed to hide in the garage, the station said.
Unable to get in through the front door, the male stranger soon broke a gate and entered the home through a sliding glass door, KTVU reported.
Video from inside the home shows the intruder moving through rooms and yelling, “Where the f**k is she?” the station said.
But soon the homeowner is seen on video back inside his residence — and armed with a shovel. KTVU said that while video doesn’t show the physical altercation between the homeowner and the intruder, a commotion can be heard.
The homeowner is heard telling the intruder, “I’m giving you a chance — get the f**k out of my house,” the station reported.
Authorities confirmed to KTVU that a physical confrontation occurred between the intruder and the homeowner, and both sustained head injuries.
Arriving officers found the intruder outside the home, and the station said he was taken to NorthBay Medical Center for treatment and later booked into the Solano County Jail.
Police said they “want to recognize the actions of the homeowner, who worked to protect his family while officers were responding to the scene.”
Jason Nichols, 30, was arrested on suspicion of burglary, vandalism, and making criminal threats, KTVU reported, adding that police on Monday added a charge of annoying or molesting a child.
The station said that during Nichols’ court appearance Monday, he seemed to take issue with some of the charges as Superior Court Judge William Pendergast read the complaint.
Nichols did not enter a plea, KTVU reported.
Authorities would not say if Nichols was targeting any child related to the homeowner, the station said, but they did say Nichols lives behind the family’s home, although the family does not know him.
Nichols’ bail was set at $250,000. While jail records indicate Nichols remained behind bars Tuesday afternoon, the charge of annoying or molesting a child was no longer listed among the charges against him. Nichols’ next court date is scheduled for April 23.
