Should we feel responsible for this gull going from it's normal refined taste in ethnic Japanese or Korean food to the fast food rubbish it seems to have adapted to quite nicely since it's been in Australia?
I just hope it doesn't contract cholesterol problems and kark it before it goes home!
Cheers,
