Lions and a Robot Dog at the Zoo- Plaything or Lunch??? 

hi Paulie yes the robot is about 15,000 usd but the cheetah keepers said 50/ 50% chance that it lives and for our test that was worth the chance it may get eaten- but like the terminator arnold swagnegger - we can rebuild it haaaa

@@roboevents1571 Hehe, glad the cheetahs didn't destroy it. Did the odds drop to 99/1% with the lions.

@@roboevents1571 im dont know about robot like this, can i ask a question?

@@roboevents1571 make it so it doesn't get bitten... Add some repelling smell to it (citrus fruits?). Btw, once their curiosity is satisfied and it's no longer novelty, it won't be effective as a distraction, so use the first contact opportunity well: have it do something meaningful.

Pop a bear spray nozzle on it. The first time it goes in then they'll remember that forever. Then it could be used to protect a keeper

Lol ! Elephant lol ...soon Robodog shoot with lasers ' goodbey elephant 🤩

LOL! I actually think that will be great! Hopefully they'd still be able to be peaceful since it's big enough to see. They should paint it in brighter colours though so it's easier to make him out. A lot of those intricate actions are invisible while he's in shadow.

😂👍

LoL

Poor doggy

Yes especially a bigger model

Well, humans dont go in there with Lions in the first place, so... And even if, once they got a meal pinned, something like this will not distract them for long rather than make them just tear it up because it appears as competition trying to take away whats theirs.

Cheetahs were certainly scared of this bot, when it charged them, because to them it is an animal which has no fear of them or any sign of self preservation instinct (which could probably mean it is either very dangerous and self-cofident, or sinc and crazy, both of which means it's better to stay away from it to not get hurt). Add an electric shock unit, so the robot could emit light, loud, sharp noise, smell of ozone (which is similar to the lightning for animals) and could "bite", and a pair of those could totally scare away the predators from an injured person. Add a tranquilizer dart gun, and you can safely neutralize any potential threats for the person. Also, they are, probably, made of metal (or hard plasatic), which is somewhat equal to thick bone, so pawing, clawing and biting them would have little to no effect and would totally be not plesant for the teeth, and they don't smell or taste like anything edible or killable, so I assume this which will probably also make the predators think twice before attacking it.

You could fairly easily mount a taser or a cattle prod on one. Trust me, if you've never been hit with a cattle prod you can't appreciate just how much of a 'distraction' it can be!

@@BeardyBaldyBob I never saw a real "cattle prod" in real life, but I recall it being one of the most powerful melee weapons in one of my favourite games, Fallout 2.

Gimbal?

@@rrpearsall a mechanical device that stabilizes videos. They're making a joke about how Shakey the video is the ENTIRE time. Next time don't give the camera to shaley gramps lol

@@goullet86 thks fpr the info do they gimbals for Android phones?

@@rrpearsall ofcourse lol

JESUS CHRIST will come very soon!

Would probably be a good way to destroy and expensive piece of technology

And they will get electrocuted

@@Lucalikesstuff agreed

no shit? You're just different...

​@@LucalikesstuffGOOD!!!

wow just imagine them actually digging to escape. crazy.

_We're here for dancing boi. But you'll do for the moment._ *RIP, CHOMP*

the fence should be at least 20 cm under the earth level

@@rogerivy2919 I would go further and say 1 foot deep, all it takes is for each lion to do a few minutes each and then ifs festival time. Animals have learning behaviour. It only takes one of them to know what it's doing and the other may follow.

@@netguru598 hi Net Guru, i completely agree with u 100% lol, which is very rare on u tube! But look carefully there isn;t actually anything going below the ground level...at least thats what it look like, they simply reinforced the ground level with a level strong bar...which is kind of useful i suppose the Lions cant dig their own size...i dont think they are good diggers...im sure those experts thought about this? So we seem to be both wrong on this instance after all.

Its missing from the robot as well.

@@jimmythepirate494 😂

Missing from honey badgers aswell.. 🤣

Size matters.🤔

@@milesr4609 baby elephans? Dude, your obsession with kitty cats has destroyed your logic. You are now not of a sound opinion. I bet that big bad kitty can kill God to, huh? 😆

Jeeez

They're all hunters 😂 just get naked, slather yourself in gravy, and go run in the enclosure.

I noticed that too, that lion is a thinker, one to watch, lol

his stance was also the best at 1:39

"That's a hunter" genius

Yeah, Lions are opportunistic animals, they will check if it taste good… any chance to get good meat has to be tried :)

If eat a robotdog well that’s the end of the line then we get electrocuted

"expensive"

Imagine eating your cell phone....THAT'S what they taste like!

not if it has a defence system

how did they go about cracking them? throwing them around?

A bowling ball is not a moving entity; a robot like this so new and unpredictable, in the lion's mind, they do not know for a fact what is the right move.

Looks more like the other way around. The cheetahs were brave enough until it turned around on them. The lions laser focused on it and never bolted or got nervous. They tried to get to it.

I was a little disappointed it didn't get into the lions cage as well so we get a better comparison

@@thetruetri5106 it has to do with the initial attitude towards the robot. The cheetahs were wary and nervous, the lions were curious and interested. So chances were that the cheetahs were not going to get near it if it confronted them(what happened in the video) while the lions would've likely taken it as a toy

Would it have hurt if it got used as toy? It is still out of metal afterall and cats tend to attack on weakpoints (Neck) instead of brute force

@@thetruetri5106 Biting the neck is the finishing move. If they think it needs to be softened up first, or in this case can't even identify the neck, they're going to use their paws first, and they could really damage the thing.

No the robot doesnt need head

@@_--Reaper--_ it should have a head

A prop head. This would serve to confuse and bewilder any creature destroying the head when the robodog remains quite "alive" and active after.

Exactly.... Probably the cheetahs were scared for the headless zombie dog....

@@el_kommander8924 no need for such robots . But some already have

Only JESUS CHRIST can save your soul from the flames of hell!

@@bekennejesusdeinesundenund2427 a fire extinguisher will do

@@archikaronerock8580 😂

They can't because the Lions would attack it and probably injure themselves biting the metal.

@@bekennejesusdeinesundenund2427 Jesus is a fictional character slick.

It will tear into pieces...

It's going to be a waste of money

@@michaelolaleye6273 Doing it for science and RU-vid likes, it's worth it. haha

hi guys =- yes that is the next plan that the zoo is looking at- but pepper spray defense mechanism and a new tazer grid iody suit- give us suggestions o how it can defend itself

​@@Jackbyl hi Jack =- yes that is the next plan - but not yout tube likes research my friend OIK, RU-vid is the side extra, that we just discovered, haaa the zoo is looking at the next stage- - but pepper spray defense mechanism and a new tazer grid body suit- developed and ready to test give us suggestions of how it can defend itself

Its about turf. The robot is intruding.

What is cowardice but the body’s wisdom of its weakness? What is bravery but the body’s wisdom of its strength. The coward and the hero march together within every man. So to call one man ‘coward’ and another ‘brave’ merely serves to indicate the possibilities of their achieving the opposite. -Master Po

No no,it's only curiosity.

hi TH but did you see the lion king of this gang - sitting on the top rock, waiting until he just had to come down and take control of the robodog checkoout

Lol they would know not to mess when them next time they encounter a indigenous wild robotic dog

Sure perhaps the robo dog could start playing some Nine Inch Nails or Metallica.

@@rh1507 These are apex predators we're talking about, playing jams like Metallica will just be pre-workout for them...robot dog needs to play some of that island boy as a deterrent

Both species have plenty to fear in the wild. Hyenas fear lions, and lions fear other lions.

hi Josh - you have a crystal ball because that's exactly what the Lion keepers sid to us Hyenas will rip an aluminium can apart if thrown into their enclose - but wait-- the next video is planned with the Robodog having a pepper spray defence system and a TASER style metal body grid - to deter the bites and ripping apart - testing in the workshop is nearly -complete - just awaiting Police permits, because Tasers and Pepper spray need permits - Even for a Robot - haaaaa

😂😂😂

Why not have a camera built into the robot... is what I'm wondering.

@@allme2547 you only will get a view of the Lions looking curiously at the Camera. You won't get a view of both the Robodog and Lions

Not really considering lions weren't around when T. rexes dominated their territories :p

@@ASR-Ansori lol

A robotic t-rex with agility like this at even half the size of a t-rex would cost a bomb.

@@sanjay59741 A robotic raptor with this kind of agility would be a jurassic terminator nightmare material.

No queres nada también Ql

Not a good idea. That would be the fastest way to make it an enemy, and we know what happens to enemies, eventually.

How about gas? Robodog could release a bad smell and the lions would go away.

" I never saw him get phased about anything, even when my significant other would get in his face and pretend he was going to stomp him" 👁👁 💀

But Lions aren’t engineered tho

Arent they..

@@internetizmyhome I beg to differ, but okay! Sorry, I don’t believe in coincidental design! I’m an engineer and I know if I don’t apply intelligent design to my work it won’t get done…..all living creatures and the surface we walk upon was engineered by something!

@@internetizmyhome My point is that I’m more interested in who or what created us! The robo-dog was engineered by humans, so its safe to pontificate from the known to the unknown that something engineered us......There is intelligent design wrapped up in all of the creations in question!

Typical human instinct is to turn everything into a weapon. When a distraction would be all that's needed.

Mount a squirt gun loaded with skunk juice.

@@kewlztertc5386 - If you'd spent more time around cats, big or small, you'd know that sometimes it's an obstacle that's needed, not a weapon. ...and a cat that weighs hundreds of pounds is gonna require a LARGE obstacle. So I really don't see a robot the size of that being much of a safety barrier, if the lions take an interest in a downed keeper. ...unless there's so many that they can act as a swarm, and "herd" the cat away. BTW... I've never accused of being "typical" in my thinking, or much of anything else. lol One last thing... Why would you use a weapon on something that's gonna be even more dangerous if it's hurt or injured? Especially if it's something you're supposed to be caring for and protecting?

@@stever285 - Better to make is smell like raw meat, so the lions would be more inclined to follow/chase it. ...and better make sure it's damned fast too.

@@guarddog318 🤔 Could've sworn i said "Distract" .. 🤔 you point out how ridiculous it is to use this as an "obstacle", or defensive weapon. . If you spend any time around cats or any predator, you'll understand they have an instinct to chase. The best use for a robot dog is to distract (bait). Use it to catch the attention of the cat, then have it run away. The cat will chase after it, and victim can safely be rescued. . No lasers, cannons, or exotic weapons needed.

Maybe you don't even realize the most important thing you said in your comment. To 'scare away' a potential dangerous animal, you need a real weapon like indeed for example a pepperspray. The robot in the video will never work without a real weapon attached as the animals will get used to it extremely fast and won't be scared away anymore. A good all terrain RC car would do the trick way cheaper exactly like you said :) Even some zoo keepers like gadgets. I can only hope they do not spend their budgets on them.

hi Hug - the blade dance - cool we got a name for it - we called it begging- haa your name is way more coool - give us some samples of something else from your part of town that we can program the Robodog to do - I will tag you as the author...

Could the lions dig through that ground? It looks like they could.

@@SL-pg4dh LOL

It's all fun and games until one lion pulls out a shovel.

No es un arma

@@arletyesperanzaalarcongarc2248 pronto

This is the type of guys they warn about in accordance to AI 💀

I'll assume you mean "foul scent", since the smell of approaching chickens would probably not be a deterrent to lions.

@Scipio488 lol you would be correct. It pays to double check ones smart phone, which I did not do

100% destruction, Lions dont fear anything...obviously they might be tentative at first but they will def strike if they want to. As in they might feel its something that is not worth destroying like they might know its for humans and spare it...

that's exactly what the Lion keepers said to us - but wait-- the next video is planned with the Robodog having a pepper spray defence system and a TASER style metal body grid - to deter the bites and ripping apart - testing in the workshop is nearly -complete - just awaiting Police permits, because Tasers and Pepper spray need permits - Even for a Robot - haaaaa

They prefer to think of it as "protective custody."

You think we're privileged to see our future demise? Not me. I hate these little demon devices. Soon there will be millions of these things, with mounted machine guns and being controlled by an interconnected A.I. that sees humans as pests to be eliminated. People who think these things are cool are fools.

I doubt they will do much to these robots after some readjustment and armed with tazer. The lions won't stand a chance against the larger model.

@@EchadLevShtim honestly they could just electrify the whole bot, no need for people to touch it, and if there is there could be a remote to deactivated

Nah, they just ask them nicely not to

Yeah that's why they did not send it inside motherfuckers would have been fun to watch
