A wildlife sanctuary is urging Brits to be kind to seagulls that swoop to attack members of public, claiming they are ‘misunderstood’.
Anthena Wildlife Care (Rehab) in Plymouth posted the appeal and explained that humans can affect seagull behaviour when they interfere with them, noting things like littering and invading their nesting ground.
The sanctuary said there needs to be more understanding about the animals and reminded people of their intelligence.
