Seagull eating duck babies in a breeding and hunting habitat used by a variety of avian animals

  • A seagull that eats baby birds eats waterbird babies for its daily food intake of animal meat. The seagull is successfully dining on the waterbird babies right through the waterbird breeding season from the start of spring and to the end of the summer months, and eating a baby waterbird regularly throughout these seasons is an essential part of the gull's complex and varied diet. The gull is the Lesser Black-backed gull, and this predatory species of marine birds will feed on many aquatic birds. These gulls will hunt and eat bird babies, fledglings, hatchlings, nestlings, and ducklings, and they are provided like this regularly throughout the waterfowl and waterbird breeding seasons. Gulls are seabirds, also known as seagulls. They are predatory flying birds and opportunistic meat-eating predators that hunt and eat various animals on or around the water. Still, they will also eat grains, nuts and seeds, and fruits if the opportunity arises. Gulls have a fantastic instinct to attack and eat other animals. This feeding behaviour has evolved over millions of years, enabling them to have an extensive menu of wild protein-rich animal meat. Gulls will hunt and eat smaller birds and bird babies of many species, including aquatic birds, waterbirds, waterfowl, and any avian species that they can deal with and access; they will attack and take hatchlings, nestlings, and birds' eggs by raiding nests regularly throughout the bird breeding seasons. Food eaten without chewing is how the gull and all birds eat their food because they have no teeth for crushing, and dining on big or small portions by swallowing in gulps is how they feed. The gull uses its beak to catch animals when it dines and eats; it is also a tool for breaking open items and tearing up things to eat. The gulls are avians living and breeding in almost every habitat close to water throughout the world's coastal and inland waterways.

      Seagulls precede the times there were large amounts of edible waste from humans. They're a predatory, opportunistic group of birds by nature.
      Besides, from the seagull's point of view there's no great difference between a chicken nugget and a duckling. Both are equally capable of protecting themselves and go down in one bite.

    This adult, male, Lesser Black Backed Gull has a diet which include live kills. The anger should be directed at humans who designed this park. Its an unnatural environment for the ducks, which would prefer to breed and raise their fledge with some cover, like overhanging bushes, trees, grasses. The gulls see these ducks in the open.

      Lmao! You have to be kidding right? Why do you think this pond was designed by humans? Just because there is a trail and grass by it doesn't mean it was. Also do you think seagulls are not able to successfully eat ducklings? This has nothing to do with people you bozo, animals get eaten in nature. If the duck was worried about cover they would have looked for some.

    So I hate this seagull for killing the ducklings, but at least he killed them afterwards before eating them instead of having them digested alive slowly. Sure it was a painful death, but eaten alive is still the worse way to go I think

    • @miskakopperoinen8408
      @miskakopperoinen8408 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Anaerobic conditions, shock and ceaseless constriction will take both the duckling's consciousness and life long before the digestive system is able to cause lethal damage. They're small creatures and can't hold their breath for long, especially if panicked and exhausted from being hunted down and swallowed.
      Terrifying end, to be sure, but not slow.

Carnivore eats the other ones because they need to eat, but they always take the one who's sick or weak compared to the others. Also, duck make alot of ducklings for this reason. So you should stop to being delusionnal with reality about the nature and respect it like it was. Stop seeing the ducks like Donald Duck...
