killing or injuring a seagull is a
criminal offence in Britain, as they are
protected by the Wildlife and
Countryside Act 1981. This law
covers England, Wales, Scotland and
Northern Ireland, and imposes a
penalty of up to £5,000 or six months
in prison for anyone who intentionally
harms a wild bird.
Same deal here in the States. As part of the Migratory Bird Act, seagulls as well as almost every other bird save for pigeons and starlings, are protected. Killing one can land you in prison or up to 15,000 in fines.

Truly dystopian.
