Crippled bird attacks food


You will note this poor gull has suffered an injury and is limping around on one leg. For some reason the other gulls left him alone so he could go after the fish left behind by some fishermen.

This is so interesting. Kind of puts a black mark on the whole survival of the fittest theory.

Poor thing! I used to be an animal rehabilitator and would try to set broken legs and wings etc. Or take them to the vet.

It has such a sad look on its face. You can sense his pain.

I had a post not too long ago about an injured seagull, it was alone as well. I think maybe other seafulls have bad juju radar.
