But the best part was when the news anchor revealed that the zoo had even sent a tweet to James Corden, suggesting that he would be perfect for the job. “We think you’d be ace at it if you want to come and give it a go… from what we saw on The Late Late Show last night, the costume would really suit you too!” the zoo tweeted at Corden.

So, if you’re looking for a job that will make you feel like you’re flying high, apply to be a seagull deterrent at the Blackpool zoo. Who knows, you might even get to meet James Corden!
