The Brigantine seagull lover needs an education. Seagulls are natural predators who are perfectly capable of feeding themselves. When they become too assimilated to humans, they become a nuisance and can cause problems not only for the humans but for themselves. They come to rely on 'scraps of bread' instead of hunting the way nature designed them to. They become annoying and even vicious scavengers who resort to actually stealing food out of the hands of humans, causing a serious potential for harm for both. This person's misplaced kindness needs to be corrected. They should remain wild.
