Where do seagulls go to die?
We have literally thousands of gulls around our area - noisy, dirty, flying rats!
They breed like rabbits in my area because people feed them
We live 26 miles from the sea
I suddenly realised that I have never seen a dead gull
Where do they go to die?

I've been trying to befriend one of the local gulls, it's not going well. I've just ended up with more pigeons. 😆
As for gulls, they stop being such louts at around 9 years of age and vanish to the old gulls home, to live out the last of their lives in the sun, eating all the chips they can manage. I cannot give away the location unfortunately.

I've seen quite a few sadly, half decomposed birds are….[redacted]
Many will prob die out of sight on rooftops, in bushes etc
Worse is a dead dolphin, laying in the sun on the beach, half eaten, bloated and extremely smelly…..heaven to a dog
Reserve ranger was grateful for the heads up (part of job recording them) but she did visibly wince at the mental visuals my description clearly gave

We have A fishing pool near me and as well as a colony of about 30 geese there are many ducks and gulls
I think it’s the massive ones you get by the sea though had a trip to Lundudno earlier in the year and those birds are huge
This is in the West Midlands

Hi Wibbles,
Seagulls are everywhere, I live in a little village miles and miles away from water and there's a lot flying about but their not so loud

I live in a seaside town and obviously we do have a lot of gulls.
I have never seen a dead one.
I do not have a problem with the gulls but people who feed them are a nuisance even though we have signs saying please do not feed the gulls.
As a result the gulls are naturally becoming more brazen and aggressive.
I do not eat outside because the will try to steal your food and attack you.
