Drawing eyes on #food packaging could stop #seagulls stealing your #chips

We tested the idea in coastal towns where gulls take food from people eating outside

We stuck pairs of #eyes onto food #takeaway boxes & gave individual gulls a choice of 2 boxes placed 2m apart: 1 box with eyes, 1 plain

Gulls appeared put off by eyes. They were slower to approach & less likely to peck at these boxes

Seagulls are a fact of life in St. John’s. But near an airport, seagulls can be dangerous. And that's why the city is killing them — by the thousand. On this episode, we tell you about the St. John’s gull cull and how it leads back to what we throw in the trash.

One of the things I love about living in brighton is the seagulls, because they're good for giving me a chance to learn how to photograph birds in flight... and they don't make it easy...
