Shoplifter! The Mail does it again with a
story on a Doritos-stealing bird.
The images are blurry because they're reduced from a security cam.
Apparently he only steals one kind: Chilli Heatwave Doritos.
Quote:
"Everyone is amazed by the seagull," said shop assistant Sriaram Nagarajan.
"For some reason he only takes that one particular kind, nothing else will do for him.
"He's got it down to a fine art. He waits until there are no customers around and I'm standing behind the till, then he raids the place."

Quote:
A spokesman for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds said the gull probably developed a taste for the chips by chance.
"Perhaps it tried some crisps in a shiny packet in the street and was just opportunistic at the shop when it saw what was inside."

I dunno, I think the neatest part of the story is that the gull has learned to let the other birds help to open the bag. He can't do it himself, so he has to get help, and then he has to share. He's saying it's OK to steal with humans, but with other fowl you must cooperate and allot earnings... it's only fair.
