Picnics, lunch boxes and unsuspecting children beware: he's liable to leave no basket unturned in the never-ending quest for his lunch." "Snuff Puppets' seagulls descend in a noisy quarrelsome pack. Larger than human size, they devour all in their path with their beaks, pooping on the sidewalk as they go. Grab your children before they do!"
