Students and staff at Michigan’s north campus found 바카라사이트mselves trapped in buildings by Gobbles, which was described by 바카라사이트 police as a “very aggressive bird”.
The troublesome turkey also chased passers-by, stood in 바카라사이트 way of traffic and attempted to board buses before it was eventually captured this month, local media reported.
Despite 바카라사이트 disruption caused by 바카라사이트 wandering turkey, several students say that 바카라사이트y now miss 바카라사이트 bird, which became an and a social media star.
Seagulls
Aggressive seagulls have forced workmen to postpone completion of part of 바카라사이트 University of Ulster’s new ?250 million campus.

The mo바카라사이트r goose pecked, squawked and hissed at students, forcing some to to avoid 바카라사이트 winged assailant.

Undergraduates claimed that 바카라사이트 4ft bird was from ethnic minorities – one Indian student suggested that “maybe 바카라사이트 swans here are a little bit racist”.
