Mysterious drop in 'gull-muggings' on North Yorkshire coast
A report to councillors states:"There is no clear explanation for this dip in reported gull muggings in 2019 and it cannot be directly linked to any council initiatives.The report also says fewer eggs and nests were removed in 2019, with that fall being blamed on weather conditions and delays caused by a change in Natural England's process for securing the removal licence.
The council is being advised to discontinue this initiative in 2020, as gull populations have remained stable in the area despite the removal of nests and eggs over the past three years. It is being urged to continue gull-proofing buildings and encouraging people not to feeding birds or drop litter.
