People often feed seagulls because they enjoy interacting with wildlife and find it entertaining to watch the birds' behavior. Many view feeding them as a way to connect with nature, especially in coastal areas where seagulls are common. Additionally, some individuals may feel sympathy for the birds, believing they are helping them find food. However, feeding seagulls can lead to dependency on human food and disrupt their natural foraging behaviors.
Yes
No. Seagulls should not be fed. They need to be eating their own food from the wild. Thanks for thinking of them!
Yes, they are not very intelligent but they do remember where they have gotten food if you feed them several times in a row.
Seagulls are not herbivores. They primarily feed on fish, although they are also known to be opportunistic scavengers. In their natural state, they are carnivores, but their adaptation to man's presence has made them omnivores.
Seagulls will eat practically anything from fish, to chips, to clams, to bread.
The most common reason for a lack of seagulls in an area is that there is no food source for them. Seagulls are scavengers and cannot feed on open water like other birds.
Everywhere is so clean, there are no scraps to feed off, but there are none on Pangkor island,Malaysia, Why ?
Seagulls usually feel safer in packs. Usually when seagulls find food they swarm around it as a pack or group and eat it as a group. Seagulls do not, however, swarm people for any reasons because they are as afraid of them as they are of us. Seagulls are kind animals, but if they see a rat, it is dead meat.For e.g., this would never happen with a seagull or group of seagulls.| VShreik!!! Seagulls!No, Joe, they are nice.But one of them ate my toes off!Ah, shut up.
Because they usually defecate on people's heads and/or property.
No, Seagulls are white.
It is not illegal to feed seagulls. However, one might argue, if vast flocks of seagulls are being attracted to your lawn because you neighbor is feeding them, that your neighbor is causing a nuisance. I think the first thing to try is to ask your neighbor to go down to the beach and feed the seagulls there, where it will not be a nuisance. Other than that, see if there is anything applicable in your municipal by-laws.
