Blackpool Zoo is looking for people to join its Visitor Services team as Seagull Deterrents.

Despite the zoo loving all things animals, it says the seagulls have been “proving to be a bit of a nuisance” with some attempting to steal food from visitors and even the enclosures where animals live.

Seagull Deterrents will need to help the zoo by keeping the birds away from its dining areas so visitors can enjoy their meals without having to keep a close eye on sneaky seagulls.

More information about the job role and the zoo can be found via the Blackpool Zoo website.
