Yeah: when you don’t want to blame lack of maintenance, blame seagulls.

animal-sentimentalism is being carried to insane levels.
Sea gulls are extremely common, and are often pests.

Interrupting nesting season. Of about how many seagulls? 20? 30? 50?
Seagulls are not exactly an endangered species. This wouldn’t have even been a blip on the radar of the breeding population.

They must have had some fat seagulls.

Did you read the article? State law says that nesting birds must be protected. That required maintenance to be done only in wintertime when the biggest and most powerful storms hit. Do you want to do maintenance work when the pier is being ravaged by 15 foot waves?

Where did the seagulls mate before the wharf was there?
Are seagulls like pandas?
To: ProtectOurFreedom
So blame the seagulls because of government policy?

I am pretty sure seagulls were nesting and mating long before that wharf was built in 1914. What’s next Viagra for the seagulls?
To: nickcarraway
Seagulls are not in short supply...why do they need special protections?

The seagulls were not a factor in that case. The bone-heads who postponed repairs on account of seagulls were.

It’s just another case of pass the beak.

If this were Massachusetts, the pier would be completely gone.
