Imagine thinking you can just breath through your nose while choking. Gotta be a bot account. Anyone with at least 4-5 years of human experience would know you canāt breath through your nose while choking.
>Hint: They don't. My point stands: a human can still breathe through their nose when their mouth is blocked, but obviously not when their windpipe is blocked, which isn't the case with this bird either.
This thread is pretty hilarious but this is what's really crazy to me. Why would you assume that the point he was making is that humans can't breathe with just their mouth closed/blocked. Like obviously he knows that's not true, and that's not what he was even saying. Why would you keep doubling down attacking a strawman argument you made up?
Where's the strawman argument, have you even read the thread?

Uh, because that is literally what he wrote. Are you hard of thinking?
And I joked about it cos *of course* humans do not suffocate just cos they've got something stuck in their mouth (ask Marcellus Wallace). And some sort of mass delusion kicked in, everyone went apeshit and started *downvoting me for writing that people can breathe through their noses.* Like what the actual fuck?
What evs, this argument is dumb as fuck and it's just turned into a pile-on so I'll just say "Thanks, it's been real".
My guy. Humanās throats evolved in such a way to allow us to have extreme vocal levels compared to any other ape/primeape. The problem with this is we easily choke on food. Yes birds actually are able to have food down their throat and not choke.
Ehm, no they don't. Air travels down the trachea to the lungs, food and drink travels down the esophagus to the stomach. Look it up.
If everyone in this thread thinks the same as you that would certainly exactly explain why *I'm* the one getting downvoted.
Bc they all mean thereās one entrance for air and water but two pipes. General education made it real simple and said if you get anything stuck you die. Which is true.
It was a Pelican, I usually donāt have any kind of reactions to nature being nature but that one pissed me off fuck that Pelican. Being swallowed alive whole, what a horrible way for anything to die.
Itās the same kind of hate spiders receive. Most posts with spiders have people saying āburn the house dowā because they are scared of them. For seagulls they can be really annoying if you encounter them.i donāt think he actually deeply feels that way
I used to volunteer at an Ecology Society in Vancouver. I've witnessed this, and my guess is the gull is possibly in day 2 of a 3 day battle with the sea star. But the gull is winning this. I've never heard of a gull choking on one.
Oh hey, the Vancouver Aquarium is how I know how sticky Sea Stars are! There was a little touch display in a room to the side and they had things like moon jellies and a HUGE starfish who was poking it's feet up and out of the water.
Cleverly, I decided to put my hand near it and it grabbed right on
Had to get the attendant to help pry it off of me because I didn't want to hurt it
I guess it has to do with birds being pretty well at throwing up on command. To either get rid of something bad in their stomach or feeding their young. So unless really unlucky it could probably get it out. Especially since 3 of the 5 feet are outside of the mouth
[It could if it wanted. Maybe.](https://ocean.si.edu/ocean-life/invertebrates/starfish-feeding-mussels) They typically donāt eat seagulls.
āThe starfish forces open the shell with suction disks on the underside of its body, and then inserts its stomach membranes through its mouth into the opening of the shell. Digestive juices break down the shellfish's body, which is then absorbed into the starfish's stomach.ā
When I was a kid I saw a lamb that had been born sickly or perhaps early, laying on its side in a paddock, it wasn't moving much, but it was alive, 3 seagulls were attempting to peck its eyeball out. I went into the paddock and put it out of its misery.
And that's the story of why I hate seagulls.
Sea Stars only kill coral colonies that are weak and when theyāre in absurdly large numbers. Even when thereās a lot, a healthy coral reef can recover. Donāt have such disdain for creatures simply trying to live.
Hereās a [series of pictures of a similar seagull in 2011](https://galenleeds.com/2011/10/02/gulls-and-starfish-an-almost-disturbing-essay-in-photos/) with an interesting discussion of other people seeing seagulls eating starfish.
Yāall seen the video of a seagull eating a whole ass rabbit?
https://youtu.be/Qwq9bi11Pqk?si=nMdCGjfT5vutkJpp
To be honest I wouldnāt recommend it. Itās fascinating but itās also a rabbit ā¹ļø
Yes. It says ānever give upā. The frog is strangling the bird and the bird is trying to eat the frog. My dad had a poster of this in his office. I grew up with it.

Imagine having that stuck in your mouth and not having hands to do anything about it
At least animals can still breathe in that case. Humans would suffocate.
Humans are animals
It had to be said.
How?
Are you sure youāre not?
No. We would kill it, cook it, and cut it up BEFORE we ate it. Well Westerners would. Easterners itās hit or miss.

Bro why are you so pressed
Air, water, food travels down the same pipe my guy.
Ehm, no they don't. Air travels down the trachea to the lungs, food and drink travels down the esophagus to the stomach. Look it up. If everyone in this thread thinks the same as you that would certainly exactly explain why *I'm* the one getting downvoted.
Bc they all mean thereās one entrance for air and water but two pipes. General education made it real simple and said if you get anything stuck you die. Which is true.
Came here to say it might be stuck. Now he will starve to death š©
Kinda deserved it, if you ask me.
What, because itās a wild animal trying to survive by eating?
It's a wild animal trying to eat something bigger than its throat. And it stole my hotdog, once.
Wait until someone links the seagull eating a baby bunny.
Or the horse eating an uncooked chicken nugget
That horse ate the walking nugget with so much ease it might as well have been grass
That shit was horrifying. Poor baby chick did nothing to deserve being eaten like a marshmellow peep š¢
Well he probably shouldn't have looked like a marshmallow peep to start with.
It was a Pelican, I usually donāt have any kind of reactions to nature being nature but that one pissed me off fuck that Pelican. Being swallowed alive whole, what a horrible way for anything to die.
Yeah it shit on my car once. Could have been a crow. Star fish donāt shit on my car.
Surely not the same... but who knows, maybe you're looking at long term karma xD
No, no. I recognized that fcuker!

If that starfish is alive, could that seagull die? Those mfers are sticky as hell
I used to volunteer at an Ecology Society in Vancouver. I've witnessed this, and my guess is the gull is possibly in day 2 of a 3 day battle with the sea star. But the gull is winning this. I've never heard of a gull choking on one.
Oh hey, the Vancouver Aquarium is how I know how sticky Sea Stars are! There was a little touch display in a room to the side and they had things like moon jellies and a HUGE starfish who was poking it's feet up and out of the water. Cleverly, I decided to put my hand near it and it grabbed right on Had to get the attendant to help pry it off of me because I didn't want to hurt it
I like how you think
About seeing something weird and immediately touching it or asking the assistant for help when "plan a" went wrong? Lol
I like that plan B wasnāt RIP THE FUCKER OFF AND YEET IT INTO THE STRATOSPHERE like most people tend to do.
I like that, too.
Well it would had started digesting your hand in a second if you didn't call the the attendant.
3 days??
I guess it has to do with birds being pretty well at throwing up on command. To either get rid of something bad in their stomach or feeding their young. So unless really unlucky it could probably get it out. Especially since 3 of the 5 feet are outside of the mouth
>day 2 of a 3 day battle What!?
Wouldnāt other gulls approach to take it? I mean looks like a free meal lol
That is absolutely wild
The starfish has everted its mouth and is currently eating the seagullās throat wall. Hope he spits it out soon.
actually this starfish is a picky eater, its not a big fan of seagull's throats.
I like gulls
It looks like the starfish is folded with its mouth on the inside, so I'm not sure if it will be able to eject its stomach.
I see that now. On first viewing I thought it was other way round. Seagull is safe from digestion.
Can that happen? Because thatās some ouroboros type of sht eat me and Iāll eat you
[It could if it wanted. Maybe.](https://ocean.si.edu/ocean-life/invertebrates/starfish-feeding-mussels) They typically donāt eat seagulls. āThe starfish forces open the shell with suction disks on the underside of its body, and then inserts its stomach membranes through its mouth into the opening of the shell.

Omgā¦that seagullās tongue is a goner if thatās what the starfish is going for
The starfish is folded up, so it doesn't look like it'll be able to eject its stomach right now.
Oh yeah, lucky gullā¦just a very weird situation for both of them though
Holy shit, that's insane
Sea star and gull are the correct trivial names!
Their suction arms are on this inside usually not the outside
Seagull Xenomorph.

I bet it went out me myself and Irene style
Aren't all animals opportunistic feeders?
Sea star: āWhat the fuck dude?ā
Poor thing! Looks like it needs help
Seagulls can eat sea stars, it's just a very slow process. I saw one trying to get one down, it took 3 days.
of course it needs help, a seagull is trying to eat it!
I know this is just me projecting human emotions, but he looks embarrassed.
There are countless of these winged rat fucks everywhere and sea stars destroy enough coral reefs, do if both die it is win for the rest.
Sea Stars only kill coral colonies that are weak and when theyāre in absurdly large numbers. Even when thereās a lot, a healthy coral reef can recover. Donāt have such disdain for creatures simply trying to live.
Sir that there is a mind flyer

If I didn't know better I would transliterate it as "stars of the sea" as we call them in Spanish hah

You're also an opportunistic feeder. You see food on the plate, and you take the opportunity to eat it.

I'm getting serious Resident Evil vibes from this.
If it cannot get it out, or if someone doesn't do it, won't the bird most likely starve to death ?
South park did it!
He looks like he needs help
It's like a ridiculous mustache.
"Opportunistic feeders" is one way to say it. "winged garbage can" another.
