Seagull Who Fell Into Chicken Tikka Masala is Having a Worse Day Than You

Orange you glad this didn't happen to you? A seagull trying to get its claws into some leftover chicken tikka masala ended up with the worst tan ever after it took a nosedive into the container and came out orange.

In a Facebook post shared on the page of the Vale Wildlife Hospital & Rehabilitation Centre in Gloucester, UK, veterinary nurse Lucy Kells posted pictures of the angry bird (can you blame it?). Apparently, the tikka-ed up bird smelled really good. We don't doubt that one bit.

"We've cleaned him up and he is doing well, with no upset tummy! Hopefully he'll stick to a much more bland diet in the future!!" Ms Kells wrote in her post, which shows the bird's before and after photos.

Ms Kells also asked other group members to suggest names for the orange seagull and instantly prompted a pun-tastic thread. "Instant Korma" said one commenter. "Gullfrezi," suggested another.

The staff at the hospital is now helping the bird regain its health. "He is a bit skinny so we are building his strength up a bit," Lucy Kells told The Guardian. "I guess that's why he was trying to get a piece of meat from the vat and fell in."

The seagull all clean and back to its original colour.


The seagull will be released into the wild once it is better.
