BOSTON (AP) -- The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service wants to kill about 4,000
gulls by dropping poisoned bread cubes into their nests, so that endangered
birds can nest and raise young on an island off Cape Cod.

The service said it hopes that in four years there will be a gull-free area for
plovers, terns and other birds on South Monomoy Island.

Two public hearings and a comment period to evaluate the environmental impact of
the poisonong are needed before the plan is approved or rejected.
