Wild pigs and piglets are seen in a residential area in Warsaw, Poland on 23 April, 2026. Warsaw has been battling a growing wild boar problem, with several thousand animals roaming the city, damaging property, disrupting trams, raiding bins, and creating safety hazards. The boars also risk spreading African Swine Fever, threatening Poland's pig farming industry. Authorities have struggled to find acceptable solutions — a cull of up to 200 animals was authorised, but shooting boars in residential areas proved deeply unpopular with residents. The issue gained fresh international attention in April 2026 when a humanoid robot named Edward Warchocki went viral after being filmed chasing a pack of boars through a suburban Warsaw car park, amassing over 3.8 million views on X and reigniting debate about technological approaches to the problem.
