Seagulls in Nemo were just a joke - they weren't meant to be seen as villains or even really as characters, they were just there to be laughed at.

Scorpion is an animal, as Love Robin said, we don't allow them due to "Moby Dick Syndrome" - a predator acting as a predator is not "evil", it is no more evil than a hunter killing an animal for food to feed his tribe or a fisherman catching fish to earn his money (and feed his family).

also scorpions DO live in people's backyards - whether they escaped as pets or an invasive species like the Bark Scorpion, they live wherever they can.

the only time an animal that is not anthropomorphic counts as a villain is if it is sapient or if it is played as "monstrous" - that means it will target humans even if other, easier prey is in sight and defies the norms of its species.

Jaws, for example, is a villain because it is NOT a normal shark at all.. it is abnormally aggressive, extremely intelligent and will hunt humans down even when other prey is available - the sharks in Jaws are monsters, they go against nature.. that also applies to many "man-eating shark" movies as the animals are reduced to slasher-style monsters that kill humans for sport and go against every instinct we know about said species (no known animal on Earth preys on humans by choice or for sport, save other humans).
