Seal Won't Leave His Rescuer!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Each rescue is different and the rescue team needs to be on high alert at all times to avoid injuries to themselves and the animal. Entangled seals are already compromised and feel threatened, and we can't blame them: we do hunt them down, pin them to the ground, and poke around in often painful and infected wounds. Some seals have a completely different reaction to the rescue, and in rare occasions like on this day, they seem calm and stay around, as if they wanted to hang out for a while.
Seals aren't pets and we never encourage unnecessary interaction, but we still enjoy human moments like this one very much.

this is like a grizzly bear charging at you, using its strength to get you out of a bear trap and then just walking away
This is a lovely way of wording this video
Lmao that's an amazing picture in my mind. 😂
Seals are probably like "What the hell? They caught 4 of us and we're all alive?"
😂😂😂😂right??
“Humans are terrible hunters” 🦭

Everyone sign petitions to STOP seal hunts in Canada ❤
@user-vm8nl1yr9k I just Googled, "why are seals being hunted in Canada," and I was immediately saddened. I didn't know this was a thing. And the babies, at that. Thanks for the information.
“Hello puppy”. The most endearing phrase ❤
As Always, God bless OCN Team🌠💟❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love that man for talking sweet talk. It’s very endearing.
Oh hai doggie
The best‼️ That warms my heart, thank u 4 all u do guys❤️
Nah he saying hello papi😏
"Red is not your color, I'm telling you now." 😂❤ That was so clever and endearing
with the accent it's perfection 😅 kind French man: saves your life but also frankly criticizes your accessories
@@caitlin.hardeeI’m not sure it’s a french accent. I don’t recognize my way to pronounce english words 🤣
@@nicob.2961 thought he said 'allez' at one point to the baby seal?
@@caitlin.hardee around 4:21? I don't understand clearly, but I don't think it's "allez". At work, even when I do another thing, my attention is caught every time a french guy talks in English. Some of the guys have an accent, but it's not a french one. At least, not a "french-from-France" ;-)
@@caitlin.hardee they're actually south african iirc
These men deserve a raise. Everyday and twice on Sunday.
pretty sure they work free and need our donations
@@ragevsraid7703 It's just a general remark. Of course these are volunteers professor smartpants.
Stop wishing good on others Jaris! 😤 we told you before!
Saving one animal doesn't change the world, but it does change the world for that animal. Thank you so much for doing this. I hate people who litter, or don't clean up after themselves.
It’s wonderful ppls like these that makes our world a better place😂❤
hate evil, not people.
Saving one animal changes the world for that group of animals.
Don't talk about love and hate so casually.
@@BornAgain223 people who litter or don't clean up after themselves need to be held accountable.
'You have the right to remain CUTE!'
'STOP RESISTING ARREST!'
I like to imagine the things they say as Helpful Seal Police
and they dont end up killing the black suspects also
@@tango_gru You just had to go and ruin a lovely moment.
@@scruffypupper Welcome back to the real world. Seals are dying coz we have greedy fishermen and people are dying coz some people are stupid and racist.
@@scruffypupper He did, but honestly it was in the back of my mind, too. LOL I laughed at your joke, Tango!
@@scruffypupper Seals were like... you arrested the darker one first, I saw it!
He was scared, but then the owie went away and the big biped made soothing noises at him and gave him scritches
Every puppy likes scritches! Even sea puppies!
Never underestimate the power of scritches!
This is heartbreaking. If it weren’t for these kind people, those poor seals would have to endure the pain forever.
Yes but how minor is it in compare to the meat and milk production. Good they do it but it is a compareable small problem.
@@psxtuneservicemilk production? Are you sick in the mind? Veganism is such a sign your life is going bad.
@@psxtuneserviceTrue, but unfortunately most humans are ignorant and think that eating animals of any kind is necessary or normal. They cause diseases in us as well!
@@psxtuneservicethat still doesn't matter for the video at all so it's irrelevant to post here
@@psxtuneservice I'm confused how that's relevant :/ Agriculture vs saving wildlife from human activity are two very different things. Cows get frequent monitoring and health checks from farmers, meanwhile wildlife could die (or even go extinct) without conservation efforts.
This is the sort of animal help videos we want and need on UA-cam, not the sickening ones where people purposefully harm perfectly fine animals then record themselves saving it just for views.
Wtf
you can tell these guys are legit just by how they talk to the seals and it makes me so happy
@@cultofmel not to mention there's NO WAY to fake running into a mass of hundreds of seals the way they do! and then the way they can spot the tiniest hint of an entanglement from what feels like a million miles away - that's the mark of a professional who's been doing this for years. i avoid 99% of "rescue" videos because i just don't want to do the sleuthing required to find the Good Ones, as it might be too heartbreaking to contend with the fact that anyone WOULD knowingly do such an awful thing. so glad i stumbled upon this channel, however, as their work has reminded me of the power of direct action and deep love
If true, such videos should be reported
So endearing, seeing that seal pup stay with Antoine and Hawain for a moment. Four young seals rescued in one run, another great team effort! Thanks guys.👍💕🦭
Usually, they want to bite.
@@PieterBreda Or run madly for the sea!
Спасибо, Антонио, что Вы разговариваете с тюленями. Это как бальзам для души.❤
@@sharim it's the baby talk, gets cats every time too. Especially if it's sincere affection
Wish us humans weren't so careless. Awesome saves! ♥️👍
“Red is not your color!” 😭 I swear the comments from you are maybe my favorite part
I know right?!?! I love to hear them talking to the babies ❤❤, Tony is especially vocal.
lol🤣🤣
Purple is my favorite color
the world's better because you're here. thank you.
❤Absolutely❤
Thanks
You guys are great...what you do...no doubt !!!
Crazy eyes! The fact you guys can see this while hundreds of them are scrambling is honestly amazing! Good work fellas!
Humanity owes you a debt of gratitude for your noble works to preserve biodiversity and the planet Earth.
Thanks guys.

@@OceanConservationNamibiait's time for you to relocate and tend to Elephant Seals and walruses
Are you a fur seal that's learned to use the internet?

also humans: look we're saving animals
@@theplacebeyondthelies2429 don't take everyone under the same roof
So heartwarming, the pup didn’t want to leave Tony, the pup knows Tony is a sweet guy. Thank you guys for saving four more lives. Be safe.♥️🦭🌊✂️
Really I wonder why that seal didn't just dash off like the others. It was having a spiritual moment when it no longer felt pain.
@@Tina-qp7pyit was terrified from everything that just happened & bc all the other seals were gone. It wasnt sure what to do most likely.
@gladysedgell2410 'hey, wait a minute. I'm fweeee!'
"Is this Heaven??"
Damn, seals are TOO EASY TO CATCH FOR THEIR OWN GOOD. On land that is, in the water you can forget about chasing one haha. But if there were some bad actors that were hunting for seals you don't need anything besides boat and a net, that's sad. Hopefully seal meat sucks but I guess not since they eat seals in Japan, South Korea, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Indigenous people of US (ONLY THEY CAN HUNT SEALS FOR MEAT), Canada, Greenland; the Chukchi people of Siberia, and the Bequia Island in the Caribbean Sea. BUT with the decline of their natural predators their population is unsustainably large, it would be even more morally and ethically correct to eat seals than meat that costs our planet A LOT. From what I read their meat is *sea meets pasture* which is hard sell for most people, especially knowing that it's seal meat.
Four entangled pups in one short run. SMH. Thank you Tony, Hawain and Denzil.
And there were probably many more that they didn't catch
In a world that sometimes seems filled with wrongs, it's nice to see something going right.
Thank you for this.
No shade, but many people are selfish and don’t give a damn. It pisses me of when I see people throwing trash out of their car window. The same people would be ready to fight if someone dumped a bag of trash in front of there home or by their car. They are thoughtless and nasty.
These are real environmentalists, not lunatics appearing on Lunch TV, sticking to the asphalt and destroying art. Bravo gentlemen, real heroes. It also blows my mind how defenseless they are on the beach when faced with a human.
Those lunatics are actually psy ops to make you suspicious/untrusting of the real activists and environmentalists.
For whats to come.
But if politics doesn't change the way things are done, their work is all for nothing... Everyone should appreciate their effort, but there are too many people that just ignore the real problems that causes even bigger issues...
@@mirkorenerLTand will continue to as long as activists target the wrong things and alienate the very people they are trying to convince.
That little one heard Tony say the word “stick” and misunderstood the meaning. He decided to “stick” around for a world famous back rub! Nice that Hawain has started to pick up a bit of puppy talk with the patients 😊. Well done gentlemen!
🦭🌊💙
More seals saved. Its a good day! ❤
🙂👍
How could that region support that many seals, and looks like they're all fat... don't sea run out of fish, and what do fish eat, sea looks barren.
@@rodenreyes6320Read up on how much fish we humans are able to fish for in a single day
Who wouldn't want to stay sitting in Tony's lap for a cuddle??!! 🧜🏽♀💜🦭

hes like hey the string is off! and im getting pets! i like it can i get more?
Dudes?
@@TheKitchenerLeslieright lmao
It hurts my heart at the damage that is inflicted on all animals by humans. And then I watch these guys helping seals and my heart smiles. Thanks guys, Yall are Awesome!!!
I can't imagine the poor seal pups who had to live their whole lives in pain. Thank you for all that you do.
This is so sweet. Poor baby didn't want to leave you. He knew you were safe.
No, he didn't really realize he was free yet, but no doubt a happy ending.
In nature it can be very dangerous to run because that really triggers the predator's instinct to hunt. The pup can't know if the humans are gonna kill him the second he tries to leave, that's why he's too scared to move. Not everything is as romantic as it looks.
Real time heroes. This is what this world and society need. More empathy and less violence and nonsense.
Marzenia 😢
To obtain that would mean the end of humanity.
Thank you all for being such incredible heroes ❤ ❤❤
Of course he didn't want to leave, you make them feel safe. I can not think of a better or more fitting compliment for you magical people who spend your days covered in sand saving animals from Human carelessness. Bless you all!
If I have some problem with a plastic robe, and an elephant sized weird huge animal comes, presses my face down in the sand, cuts of the plastic, I would also run.....maybe they just clean me up before they eat me?
“You go puppy “ and tell them that these nice guys are here to help you and do not be scared !!! Thank you!!😊
Of course, the seal doesn’t want to leave you, you scratched his back and sides, who would leave from that? 😁Excellent, fast and precise work, with a minimum of pain for the animals! Bravo, Tony and Hawain!💗
It looks like both patients havent been to affected by their respective entanglements. That is always good.
Thank you both
Don’t forget about Denzil… He got 1 too!!!🙏🤗😘
СПАСИБО ПАРНИ🎉😇🎉😇🌷🌷🌷🌎💥🌎🙏

Thank you good people ❤

Thank you all. I think everyone deserves happiness, but some EARN it, and you all have!! I wish you every possible happiness!
Hello everyone!!!
What a nimble first seal, he almost escaped, but he managed to be the first to be saved) "Don't bite!" - Tony, as always, convinces the seals to behave correctly when rescuers work with him.
And the last seal - it's so cute when he doesn't want to leave.
For every Cape fur seal saved, there are 1,600 marine animals that can't be helped((( Thank you guys for your work!
Today is July 28, 2024. This amazing channel already has 2.05 million subscribers.
Hi😊. Yes that statistic is horrendous. So grateful to OCN for the seals (and others) that they save.💙
Hi! I appreciate your reports. 😊
Evidently, much more work needs to be done with ghost gear recovery, education, and reduction. More countries' governments are joining the Global Initiative, so at least some are taking it seriously and making a difference.
Also, there are companies making jewellery and household items out of recycled ghost gear fishing nets, pots, ocean microplastics, and beach rubbish. 😊
1 out of 1600 😢 as they say
“a drop in the ocean”
Only it’s people dropping trash in the ocean that starts all this. It’s a cruel irony but u can only do what u can do for the lucky ones ✌️&❤️ from 🇬🇧👍
The U.K. has organisations that deal with ghost fishing gear recovery, education, and recycling for household products, jewellery and plant pots. I am waiting for a delivery of clothes pegs being shipped to me from the U.K., made out of recycled fishing nets from the ocean recovered by diving. 😊 The U.K. pioneered ghost gear recovery, and trains others. 😊 Evidently, a whole lot more needs to be done, but it's something!
@@daniellamcgee4251
I can’t speak for any other fishing form than beam gear, as that’s what I spent my nearly whole career doing. But I can say that if I got hung up on the sea bed with one of the two nets I towed, I would spend, and have spent hours getting back what amounts to many thousands of £’s worth of gear. I have even had to let my whole warps go, with a buoy on the end for recovery, and come back the next day or after the repairs and retrieve my nets.
We don’t see many (if any) snared seals in The Wash. (North Norfolk) But we do see, and I have myself found pups that have lost their mothers after bad weather sweeps them away.
This is why this channel grabs my attention and pulls on my heart strings cos I have saved 3 pups. Buzz, Lucky & Luke, all named after the boats I was working on at the time, the Buzzard & the Lucky Luke.
I don’t care how much of a hardened sailor some say they’re. They would find it hard to not get chocked up when u have a starving pup in your lap, sucking on your finger for all it’s worth, while u are steaming the boat home. It’s a magical feeling I can assure u of that 🥲✌️🇬🇧
It's not people in general though, it's commercial fishing boats. If you want to stop this, switch to a plant-based diet and stop eating fish (or eat less).
@@MiltonRoe
Well that’s a LITTLE BIT DIFFICULT.
See for tea I have some freshly caught and cooked cockles with freshly peeled shrimps (by me) in a sea food salad, dash of lemon, dash of vinegar.
See as I’m a 4th generation commercial fisherman by trade (only sadly retired) I get brought lobsters, crabs, prawns, shrimps, cockles & mussels (alive alive Ho 🎶) whelks and fish of many different species. Thought I do tend to go for the red gurnard yummmmm.
Yes I have lost parts of my nets at sea on many different bottom snares. BUT I have also spent countless hours on getting my gear back. Cos unlike these huge mega trawlers, we can’t afford to lose £20,000 in net alone. That’s without the ground gear.
We never open the wheelhouse door and dump our rubbish into the sea, we bring it home and dump it into the bins provided.
OK you’re a vegan and therefore extreme in your views, but for the love of Pete, don’t try and force your narrow mindedness onto others. Cos some of us have worked the sea, and some of us (me) have actually saved seal pups. Ok sweety, life is not all 🌈 &🦄👍✌️🇬🇧
@@MiltonRoe well that’ll be tough cos I’m a retired trawlerman.
I had cockles and shrimps for tea, I hope that soy milk filled u up
Awe poor babies. Thank you so much for helping these creatures. Blessings 🙏 to you all who love and care for mammals and animals. 😊
Thank you for your kindness and love for animals God bless you all ❤❤❤
Heartening. You’re special people ❤

Saints!!!
I can tell these men are good dudes, they love those little seals
It doesn't hurt, that they are cute AF either! ;-)
Like the one that stayed for a while was soooo adorable!
aren't they the ones who spread the nets as well?
@@theplacebeyondthelies2429 Yes... they spend their nights laying traps for seals in which they'll rescue 3-5 years later....
USE YOUR BRAIN!
@@gasser5001 ever heard of fishermen?
They sent a thousand seals just running into the ocean. For the love of seals. Do you know what’s in the ocean? I’m guessing predators. I’d say the odds are more than 4 seals were eaten by predators that day. Seems reckless to me. If they rescued the little guys struggle in the water and affected not 1 seals on the beach. They did a good job. But did you see what they did to the hearts of seals. They all mindlessly jumped right back into the water. Those seals saw them as the predator. Forgot what’s in the water and jumped right in. Geez, people everyday get in those waters, not deep and get tore up by predators. Imagine the smorgasbord that just happened. Have a good night.
Looks at all the sea puppies you saved, you really are heroes!👍❤️🙏🏻Thank you!
Fast too.
god bless you, kind people. Everybody should be like you, be more thoughtful and kind. We need to take care of the environment. thank you
Thank you for taking care of them.❤
The goverment needs to make people more aware of this problem. Littering needs to become an offense. Thankyou so much to you guys. You are international heroes !
The fishingnets of the trawlers must be tracked by gps, so they can be recovered if get lost. Couldn’t that be a thing? But even if possible I bet no one would pay for this. It might be true that eating vegan could sort a big piece of this problem. My daughter is but I am not there yet…
@@inipin510 The problem is the debris of fihing nets and lines. Trawlers would never lose entire nets unless there is a massive storm which is usually avoided. That aside I think your idea would have been excellent. Respect to your daughter on veganism. I have been trying myself at a vegetarian diet, but I am not fully there either. Still, cutting down on meat is also good.
As long as we fish, and we need to fish, it cant be fully avoided. Littering in my country cost you up to a quarter of a monthly net salary. If you do it in an protected environment it can bring you to jail
When they don’t want to leave the rescuer is my favorite one. Keep it up!
I would want to brush him and give him a snack! I know they aren't pets, but it looks like this one wants a little break, a little scratch behind the ears or whatever they like.
I don’t think you guys can get the Nobel Peace Award but I think you guys should be nominated for Nobel Peace Award.
They should get it!
And the people that cause this need to pay and be held accountable for all the suffering. Name names!
This rescue should be made like an Olympic event. Thank you for helping those pups.👍🏽👍🏽
Praise God for having these rescuer
"No sleeping..." He wasn't sleeping. Nor disoriented. He was waiting for that backrub that he'd been told about by some of the others! After all, fair is fair. If one gets that backrub, then they all deserve one. Unless, that is, the "no biting" rule isn't observed. ❤👍🥰
Love it. They do like belly rubs don’t they
Oh my goodness, that was so adorable! The pup didn't want to leave, I bet it felt warm, comfy, and safe in Tony's lap. So cute! Awesome rescues, thank you very much OCN, you are all amazing! 💙🦭💙
Came for the life-saving, stayed for the scritches. 😅 Thank you, OCN, for all that you do.
Thank you guys! My heart is filled with joy! Love from Asia. Thanks for showing kindness to these animals.
Thank God for people like this ❤
What a sweet moment for Antonie to spend a little time with the pup! Great work OCN team!!❤

How cute! I like how you speak to the puppies in that voice reserved for little kiddos of all kinds of mammals ❤️
So sad for these animals!!😢 God bless for saving them!!
I divinely respect these animal lovers. They are a gift from God.
Great job guys! Four little chunks to live another day! The last one had no idea what happened, but sure was cute being calm after all that confusion with everyone running and no one was left to be around. So CUTE!

This is the kind of work that deserves to be handsomely rewarded, beside the joy it provides to the rescuer.
Who wouldn’t want to stay? Somehow this creature took away my excruciating pain. I’m staying here forever. 😅
Well done team! If I were the last seal I would certainly stay with Tony too!
Animals feel with whom they feel safe! 🥰💕
Thank you guys, I'm glad somebody cares 😢
Mate, you're saints for doing this. It saddens me so much to see these cute animals suffer like this.
I don’t read the papers or watch the news on tv because it is just so depressing and then I watch you guys even Naude kids help out and I feel hope and love, thank you OCN heroes.

I love to hear Antoine's voice so tender to all the puppies. The last puppy didn't want to go, he loves your voice & scrubs😅❤
Your dedication to helping these animals is heartwarming. Thank you so much.
I just need to watch content like this to remind me that there is still good left in this world. What absolute legends.❤
Thank you kindly human beings ❤️
"Are you my daddy?... Am I in heaven?... Where's Mama? I'm hungry... You got any food, Papa Antoine?"
That was so sweet, you don't get that reaction much.
It lifts my heart to see such displays of compassion towards our fellow companions of the world we live in. I can just imagine the relief felt by the seals and the only reward sought was the sight of the seals swimming freely again. Just such wonderful people you are. You restore my faith in humanity, thank you so much for your endeavours.
It is also important to note that the seal made the effort at continued contact with them first, and they respected its space and let it leave and not restrain it. I have the utmost respect for these guys as they really know the boundaries that these animals have.
How I love it when puppies want to stay with you! Even if they want to get their bearings, I still think they're happy after the entanglement is removed.
Puppy was like, "you saved me! Plus I like this spot, it is very comfy! " 😍😍😍
I am so grateful that you guys ate out there rescuing these seals, some of the wounds they have are horrific. I wish people would stop treating the oceans and the planet like a rubbish bin. Once again thank you
Real heroes don't all wear capes. Thanks guy's for saving these precious few. Im sure they will spread the word amongst their bunch about yall 🥹
Thank you guys. Much appreciated.
Bravo to the one editing your clip, big part of why its fun to watch them. Keep it up 👏
I fantasize that one day they will just line up to be freed from whatever is binding them. They hopefully will know you are there to help them.
Or better still they learn to adapt to the dangers of being entangled by lines.
Some animals now adays actually do know how to seek humans for help. It's pretty interesting honestly. Like how lately on super hot days, animals ask for water.
You are all awesome! Thank you!!!!
Thank you for helping the seals. I like how quickly they are able to catch, cut, and release back into ocean the seal ensuring that they don't stress them out too much. Great work!
Dziękujemy niezmiennie❤🇵🇱👍👋
