I’m from Blackpool. The seagulls are an integral part of our identity and, although they can be absolute bastards, I could never imagine harming one 🙁 this makes me so sad
I killed a seagull in school once. The day before one nicked my chips when I was on my way back to school from the chippy at lunch.
The next day I saw loads of them huddled in a circle on one of the courts and chucked a 3/4 full bottle of water at them and clobbered one right in the head.
Felt well tight when I saw it wasn’t moving.
Anyone who is wantonly cruel to animals is likely to be rather unpleasant to humans too.
I bitch slapped a seagull in Whitby after it tried to nick my chips, wasn’t my intention I just reacted. Fucker kept on coming. They’re scary creatures, but I wouldn’t condone senseless violence against one. Especially when you consider the fact that we have made them so greedy by feeding them scraps for years
Why is this news! As far as I can see no laws were broken by this asshole.
Are seagulls not classed as vermin IE rats of the air?
A casual reminder, before the rage crew enter the arena:
In (or on behalf of) the UK, hundreds of millions of animals are slaughtered annually for meat consumption. Estimates based on recent statistics indicate the following approximate figures for animals killed for meat each year:
* **Chickens**: Over 1 billion
* **Pigs**: Around 10 million
* **Cattle (including cows, bulls, and calves)**: About 2.5 million
* **Sheep and lambs**: Approximately 14 million
* **Turkeys**: Roughly 15-20 million (seasonal variations, especially around Christmas)
* **Ducks**: About 10 million
* **Other animals (e.g., goats, game animals)**: In smaller numbers, typically tens of thousands.
These figures reflect large-scale farming and slaughtering practices in the UK. Factors such as dietary trends, export levels, and population growth can influence these numbers.
So: one seagul is very much a drop in the ocean of animal suffering produced by our nation.
