they dont really have any natural predators, occasianally a seagull will be picked off by a shark every once in a while but as for fresh water seagulls...your on your own with these. In most states it illegal to kill them, so your basically stuck with them.

Occasionally an allligator or shark may get a seagull, but for the most part they have no natural enemies other than people.

Adult seagulls do not have predators. Their nests are vunerable and as result they tend to nest on islands off the shore. However they nest on the ground and if there are skunks, racoons, foxes, they will all eat the eggs or young chicks.
Also owls will take the young chicks.

Peregrine falcons prey heavily on seabirds and I would expect that some gulls are small enough to be vulnerable. Eagles probably catch a few off guard.

Probably eagles, hawks, falcons or owls would take out an adult. Also, sharks probably get a few. The eggs and chicks are probably killed by raccoons, skunks, snakes, possums, or any other type of scavenger.
