Clever, Adaptable and in Crisis: The Truth About Scotland's Gulls

Gulls are remarkable birds. Intelligent and adaptable, they navigate our coastlines, farmland and city rooftops with a resourcefulness that few species can match. They're also, it's fair to say, not always the most popular of neighbours. In our latest podcast, we explore why the gulls we see in Scotland are far more fascinating — and far more vulnerable — than most people realise.

Listen to our other Podcasts and find out how you can Make Space for Nature.

Resources to promote gull awareness

We have developed a set of resources to help everyone across Scotland raise awareness of the simple steps that can be taken to help prevent gull issues. Please feel free to use these resources for awareness-raising in your area.
