A new study by researchers at the University of Sussex has found that Seagulls choose their meals based on what people nearby are eating. With the study finding that given a choice between two crisp packets, herring gulls pick the same colour as one a nearby human is eating from 95 per cent of the time. With that in mind we decided to ask just how smart are seagulls and are they friend or foe?
