A couple of years ago there was a feature on the BBC World News about a seaside town in either Devon or Cornwall which showed harmless humans sitting on a bench, enjoying the view, unwrapping their sandwiches and having them snatched out of their hands by very large and determined seagulls. The municipality had to put up warning signs, I think.
