It's a Plustech Oy / John Deere hexapod logging machine prototype. The company web site seems to be down, but here's an article about it www.defensetech.org/archives/001436.html
The idea was to make a logging machine that does less damage to the forest and can move through more challenging terrain than wheeled or tracked logging machines.

Charles says these rigs are nice to the ground but they hate trees.

This thing would scare the living daylights out of me if I were to encounter it. Looks intimidating. Probably the trees feel the same way.
