I was working with a seagull and I said “as someone in Wildlife I know I should never anthropomorphize animals or hold them to any human moral standard, but seagulls are capable of and regularly knowingly commit evil” and the vet tech with me said “no yeah that’s true.”

Nooooooo. As a wildlife carer, seagulls are precious. They are silly and annoying at times, but I love them.

Listen. I will defend seagulls and their habitat to my own end out of altruism in the fight to save nature, but if we lived in a world where animals were capable of understanding my efforts and being grateful, seagulls would still just be the same. They’d be like “oh some dumb stupid bastard humans saved our entire habitat? Interesting. Take their belongings.”
