A gull found stuck in a George St grate may have exposed a design flaw in Dunedin's infrastructure, a conservationist says.

Those who found it had already phoned the Dunedin City Council which said the stuck seagull "wasn't their jurisdiction to go and save it", she said.

Got a gull stuck in the decorative grill on the front of our office once. Spent the whole morning shrieking, seemed like he was stuck. Called the council, SPCA, building owner, nobody wanted to help.

Then after a few hours the bastard quite calmly hopped up and flew out.

That gull was a dick. We named him Greg.
