Baby Seal TRAPPED IN GHOSTNET Entanglement
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 лип 2020
- Antoine and Naude from Ocean Conservation Namibia catch and release a young male Cape Fur Seal pup that was bound up in a Ghost fishing net. They spotted him from a distance. It was unclear what the pup was stuck in, they ran towards the seal along the beach and Naude managed to catch the very immobile seal by hand. Antoine immediately got to work on cutting through many coils of thick blue nylon rope, followed by just as many strands of thinner line. The seal pup was stuck in a huge piece of illegal gill-net, which still had its floats on. Floating on the surface, this net would have looked like a fun toy for the poor pup and lured him closer to play with it. After getting caught up in it, he would have no other option than to come to the beach, slowly starving and choking to death and he would not be able to swim or hunt with this burden around him.
As soon as he was cut free he ran off with renewed energy to join his friends waiting for him in the water. 🦭

Who else had this show up on their recommended and have been binge watching all their rescues?
Yep I'm deep in now, can't stop lol
Yep
🙋🏻♀️
that would be me
Yes, me too...I just went to their website and sent them a few bucks through a GoGetFunding link. Happy to give a bit of support just to let them know I appreciate them.
Don’t ever stop what you’re doing. The world and its creatures need people like you. Well done you guys.
So so true the world has to many ideots and cowards but not many brave men like them

I wonder sometimes if the seals know on some level that they’re being helped? Keep up the great work guys! Your efforts and commitment are beyond beyond!
I've seen videos where the seals have apparently relaxed when the bonds start getting released, which could suggest they understand they are getting help, in some cases at least, but mostly I think the animals are already very stressed when tangled up. I'm sure it's just panic for them when captured, until they are free and back with the pod.
Yes, but They are weary because They Are Aware that Humans are the Most dangerous Being in this World. Humans hurt Many, even Each other. Peace❤

@@arthurmorgan8966 Alright then, I leave you to it. But watch out for Pinkertons today.🤙
@@Nate-242 I “insist” they won’t be a problem
How can you dislike this? These men are helping animals injured by all our plastic waste, we should be thanking them.
Ikrrr
It’s probably just Karen’s and actual fishing company’s who don’t like being seen as evil
Or animal poachers
the dislikes must be from ppl who really really hate baby seals 😢
Maybe they dislike the plastic waste hurting the seal.
That was a lot of netting,so thankful I am sure the pup is that you were able to save him. Though he was a little impatient, one could sense he knew he would be free... I can't tell you how much happiness you bring for all your hard and determined work...Love and respect to the OCN Team...heros in my ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Спасибо Вам , Уважаемые Добрые Люди!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Лучшие парни человечества.Так самоотверженно спасают это герой.🇰🇿👍
Wow, that pup was tired and weak from dragging that gear around, and probably not eating. Awesome job!
He could not dive for sure so feeding would have been impossible for him.
Ocean Conservation Namibia Good thing you spotted him! Poor baby. Like you said with the floaties on him he couldn’t dive to catch fish. I would love to do this if I had an opportunity. I have interacted with seal pups on my dive trips in the past. Such curious and playful creatures with the biggest expressive eyes. Love them. ❤️ 🌊
@@silverpurkat 🥰🌈🌈
What if it was just weight training
🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👏👏👏
People say they “bark”, yet they sound exactly like sheep bleating.
None of them were barking. They have different sounds and barking is one of them. Just because you don't hear it doesn't mean they don't.
🐑 beehhh
Goats... I hear goats. It amuses me greatly
California sea lions bark. These guys definitely bleat like sheep.
Stupid
Какой ужвс,что делает человек в среде,ему не принадлежащим. Спасибо ,что спасли жизнь этому милому зверю
My heart is aching for these poor pups. These gentlemen are my heroes!
Breaks my heart seeing these poor creatures tangled in this garbage, but i'm so glad you are there to help them, True lifesavers!!
I kinda wish a vet could ride with them once on a while. And the ones that are really bad they could give them something to help with the pain and antibiotics help them heal. But that ocean water seams to help a lot.
@@robyngouldin9386 Hi. Yes, I agree. Like the almost "decapitated seal" from a day ago- was so bad... 😢 😖
I think a vet would have been great to have that day...
Thank God salt water heals very well. I had completely chopped off the tip of my finger, through the bone. My doctor placed it where belonged bandaged it then was told I had to keep my hand plastered to my chest for months. It wasn't going so well and my mother took me to Atlantic City and let me go in the pre polluted salt water. That night my finger went from purple green to completely normal. I was able to have a finger with the end still there. It doesn't feel or look normal and its a quarter inch longer than the same finger on my other hand.
White mans shit
@@robyngouldin9386 agreed
This pup would have died without you guys, thank you for all that you do...The pain that humanity inflicts on so many innocent creatures is sometimes too much to bear.
Well said.
They get eaten by sharks regularly, part of the food chain.
@@TruthOverLies Wow, that's deep.... lmao ^^
@@docgonzobordel 😆 Good one!
I agree, I saw a picture of a small turtle whose neck was stuck in the sea !!! Of course it was thrown away to the sea by human !

Спасибо вам!!!❤️🌹🌹😇🙏🙏🌍💞💖🌺
God bless you for every rescued seal!!! Love you guys!!!
amen to that
They did the work not god
You guys are true guardian angels. It must be such a wonderful feeling releasing these poor creatures from bondage and setting them free. Thank you!!!
Soooooooooooo nice👍
I TOTALLY AGREE 1000%
I’m with you
This poor thing. This is why every time i go to beach i bring a bag to collect any trash i see. Just look at these poor animals. Thank god they have a team like this to help them. Bless u
thats a great idea
Your a good person aswel.
We do too. We've even had a few minor rescues of our own 🥰
🙏🙏🙏
I have done that in Hawaii and Mykonos. Both place there was a plastic bag floating so I picked it up and filled it with the other plastic floating around. It was gross.
Дорогие друзья там у вас похоже, работы на долго ,столько человек приносит беды ради наживы , спасибо вам огромное и вам всех благ❤❤❤❤
Вы дорогие спасатели .Да воздаст вам Господь за ваше милые сердечка.
They sound like Billy goats, donkeys, and the town drunk all at once.
They also sound like sheep.
😂😂
"Town Drunk?" This is unheard of. LOL!
I was trying to place their sounds. You described them perfectly. And, I laughed at your “town drunk” description, perfect!
Omg! That was funny.🤣🤣🤣
"Thank you for your patience," the exhausted hero rescuer says to the grateful, newly freed pup.
Bless you, gentlemen. Job well done! 🕊
Thank you very much!
Как же страдало это несчастное животное....Сам Господь послал вас ему для спасения!!!! Дай вам Бог здоровья,удачи,мира и благополучия! Преклоняюсь перед вами, ребята!
Like angels. The way you pounce on them and deliver them from certain death brings tears to my eyes almost every time. May God bless you guys for every day of your lives
I’m shocked a whole pier wasn’t attached! Holy moly! That’s a lot of debris attached to him! Bless you for saving him! Thank you for the rescue! ❤️
Poor pup I can’t even imagine how much it suffered before you guys spotted him/her. Great work as always and as always I wish the rest of us did more so you guys wouldn’t have to do this type of work.
Damn right! Thank you very much!
This pup was very lucky, the lines didn't slice him all up just yet. Check out their other videos with not so furtunate seals if you bare stand to watch.

Anyone think the seals sound like sheeps? Or is it just me? 😳
I was thinking the same. They sound like sheep or goats.
It's sheep in a seal's clothing.
@Eric Cartman pee is also stored in the balls

That puppy stayed relatively calm. His eyes seemed to show a realization that you were helping him & taking off that mess that was hurting him. Thanks Naude & Tony for caring & doing something about it❣
Can't imagine that such a small pup survived that long with that weight on it. Incredible! Great job. You can see how energetic he was as soon as you cut the last strand.
He really wanted to go for lunch, that’s for sure!
@@OceanConservationNamibia Yes. Great. He must have told his buddies. 'Look, I am free. They helped me! So happy to swim with you guys again!' 😂. Let's just say that NO seal was harmed during the making of this video!!😂

Many and many Thanks for your kindness to this Seal in Trubel.
Very Beautiful Job you have been done.
What I've learned today: Seals sound like drunken goats
And I can tell you, they smell worse than goats too! Don’t ever get downwind from a colony of them. 😜
Goats scream, it's more like a flock of sheep imo. 😄

The poor baby god knows how long she was pulling all that around . Thank so much guys🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Well, probably not more than a week or two. There is no way it would have been able to hunt with that, and two weeks of not feeding would do its toll.
"It's okay, puppy, we've got you now...." And we will not let you go until every inch of this entanglement is removed, because that is what we do. Heroes! 😘
I can’t believe the entanglements these poor seals get hung up on. They are so lucky to have a team of wonderful strong, fast people who are dedicated to helping them. Amazing!
I am truly humbled by the work you do. You’re simultaneously rescuing these beautiful creatures whilst teaching the world. I am 60 years old and it is time to LEARN. X
Man I can't even imagine how much relief he must have gotten
First the ropes and then thin fishing line..
Good job done
It was actually part of the same net, the structure and then the mesh itself...
I'm pretty sure that the seal was so happy & pleased, & probably knew y'all were helping him.
I know he felt so, so much better when released! 😃
BINGO
While trying to run away..
하루종일 보고있어요
애써주셔서 감사합니다
I can't imagine who doesn't appreciate this? But takes the time to dislike... So weird. Thank you guys. Awesome work.
It's funny how many people are So blind to see and they can see at the same time.
Could be a fish disliking it
Those who dislike
They are crazy 🤪
The equip who this Job they love the nature 🏞 and we appreciate them.
Those who dislike are criminals
Maybe, they dislike the fact these guys need to be there doing it, because of the suffering of the animals.
Wow that was a bad one. Good job guys! We need about 10 million more of you guys all over the world.
Thank you very much but what about having less people throwing their trash in the wild instead?
@@OceanConservationNamibia that would be ideal. However I don't have that much faith in humanity. I live in Florida and have to bring trash bags with me everytime we go to the beaches. People toss everything from cigarette butts to whole pop up tents on the beach. People just don't care. So unfortunately that leaves it to people who do care.
No 10 million, but billion 😉
That was definitely the worst one yet. Good job again guys.
That was brilliant he really knew you were helping - so impressed- thank you ! 🙏 ❤
That poor pup with so much wrapped around him! So glad he was freed! ♥️ Much love!
I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE PEOPLE SUCH AS YOURSELF DOING WHAT YOUR DOING.....THANKS SO MUCH!!
Our w!
These guys are hero’s!
My new ritual: Start my day on a positive note, by watching a seal rescue video with a cup of coffee - Keep em comin'
Yay! More to come unfortunately...
Yeah, really. I have been in a hell of a funk for several years. This is something I can see and say, without hesitation, some people are doing something good. Man, I cry easily.
There's no way he could have survived with all that on him. Thank you all for being such incredible heroes
Your effort to save the poor thing is immensely appreciated. Well Done 👏 👏👏👏👏.
The pup remained relatively calm,as if it was aware the people were there to help. These creatures depend on their agility to hunt and evade predators,an impossibility when entangled in such terrible Flotsam & Jetsam. Thank you for all you do
They sou d like sheep bleeting
Or it simply realizes it can't run away and will be only wasting energy, so it's better to wait for an oppurtunity than struggle

The poor seal carrying that net all over. Thank you for helping that little suffering animal!
That little seal figured out you were helping him...I wish they all could figure it out and make it easier for you! Thank you for the wonderful work you do!
Yeah, but remember that fear is a core basic emotion in almost every creature from the time of birth. Fear is the hardest to overcome. Fear can make someone or something to do things that they normally don't do. Just know that they are already in Fear when they are trapped like that. Such as everyone else, I do get happy if they figure out what's going on.
@@Seeker0628 I agree, that fear was put into them either after Adam and Eve messed things up or after the Great Flood. I want to say it was the flood, because people didn't eat meat until after that.
Anjos do mar 🌊 obrigada 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I am so proud of the work you are doing to help these seals. Thank you thank you thank you.
I hope fishermen watch these videos and realize how much harm they are causing by throwing inconsciently their nets over the seas. And thank you guys for this great job.
the time they found a seal wearing a heavy duty work shirt around his neck. the logo for the marina it came from was printed on the back and they held it up to the camera and called them out..
The people who dont care will not care untill the law shows up for them.
I can't help but think that the fisherman are aware but don't care because the seals would be eating their catch, and could potentially be behind🎉 the deliberate cause for some of the seal entanglements. Given the vast population of these seal colonies fish trawling is threatening their food source and survival. In my opinion trawling should be banned worldwide. Humans have become a glutinous and wasteful race.
😊😊@@sonialoves444
You guys are amazing for what you do, Never stop caring for animals
I didn't know that seal cubs sounded like lambs, by the sound you would think you were on a sheep farm. I love these videos, thanks so much for the work you do.
Thank you! I feel the struggles of seals, suffocating to die. God bless you all!
My heart bleeds when I imagine how many of such seals or other marine lives are going through lots of pain without help due to human activities! God bless OCN
AMEN
How did that pup survive! Thank you for giving him his life back!
He would not have much longer. His neck was getting pretty thin.
That poor baby!! Thank you for your dedication and compassion. The world needs more people like you ❤
to get every morning back to the beach. knowing work is never done , is heroism. Sysyphos from antique Greece greets you ❤✌

Man that poor seal pup was seriously loaded up, how he was even able to dive for fish with those floats around him is beyond me. That particular rescue must have been seriously rewarding.
The seals sound like a large flock of sea sheep. Is that why Sea Sheperd is involved?
Hahaha! Sea Shepherd is not involved but yes they do sound like sheep 🙂
I was looking for this comment, i thought the same x
@@c.w2000 Sea Shepherd is having trouble right now because several countries have listed the as a terrorist organization. They had been working in the gulf of Mexico pulling illegal nets that kill the vaquita but they were shot at a couple of times by poachers, they have been pretty silent since covid19.

to all fisher man, be responsible to your action, remember the sea is where you fine food to feed your family..
To be honest i Think the seal wasnt crying cause of pain it was crying cause it felt unable to do anything about the situation it was in it thought it was gonna die ( to all the people thinking im hating on this IM NOT! I love what these guys are doing they are heroes as far as i know )
@@thomasfrandsen1763 I know it must be so confusing for the poor animals but they eventually figure out they’ve been helped, not harmed.
