Bird-X Sonic Bird Deterrent Product Could Prevent Gulls from Attacking Other Birds
CHICAGO (PRWEB) June 22, 2018 -- Foul play was suspected at first when over 50 baby seagulls were found dead on a Chicago sidewalk, presumably dropped from the tall building above. However, wildlife experts have determined this not to be the case, as investigators from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service actually saw the attacks happen firsthand, after going to the area where the gulls were first found. The attacks were still going on, and the investigators watched as adult seagulls were pushing smaller birds from the roof.
This is a natural occurrence in nature. Adult birds can attack chicks that are not their own offspring. Gulls are very aggressive, and the act is one of a competitive nature – whose babies are going to survive. It has been speculated that a lack of available food or nesting areas could have caused the attacks.
If these birds were deterred from the area, they may find places that aren’t overpopulated with other birds.
