It’s been a long time since we wrote about seagulls being a*seholes, but their reputation as the baddest bird in the sky has long been solidified given the horrific footage we’ve shared over the years.
Even still, I don’t think anything could have prepared me for this video of a seagull literally swallowing a squirrel whole:

Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Who even knew that seagulls ate squirrels, or indeed anything furry? I thought they only ate fish and Greggs? Seems I have a lot to learn about seagulls and their diets, but either way I really hope this squirrel was already dead so that it didn’t have to endure the horror of being swallowed whole by this terrifying bird. Surely the squirrel would have put up a bit of a fight if he was? RIP regardless.
P.S. Let’s not act like seagulls haven’t been on the receiving end of a few battering, too. Who could forget the video of that monkey beating a seagull to death at Chester Zoo? Nightmare fuel.
