In addition, birds steal food from tourists and attacks on children, reports the Los Angeles Times.

Herding dog the border collie proved to be the safest way to clean the beach from pesky and dangerous birds. Two dogs involved in the experiment had worked dispersing geese on runways of a military airfield. They scare away birds, while not causing them harm.
