Why havent you learnt how to sedate the seals when it comes to serious in or removing those giant hooks from those animals it seems a bit non sensacle to put yourselves and the seals through so much stress ( injuries ) and tiredness at the end of the day you guys must be exhausted 😍🌹💐🌷🍀💟☮️anyway i love what your doing for these poor creatures who get themselves tangled and fish hooked its just dreadfull these fishing people need education seriously anyway much love from indonesia and Australia and keep up the good work ❤️🌹😍🌷💐💙
We do have a lot of comments about sedation for this video, so here is our answer to all of them. The sedation of pinnipeds is a very complex process and much riskier than of terrestrial mammals because of their proximity with water and their anatomical and physiological adaptations related to diving. A rescue operation with sedatives would also take on average ten to fifteen times longer, possibly causing the Cape fur seal to overheat.
Why would you even think sedating an animal like that is a good idea ? I can't stand people like you who think you're the first person to think of that sh*t. They are doing the best they can with the best tools. Or are you not paying attention ?
I am in awe. This wouldn't have been possible just several months ago. I've said it before but I'll say it again, watching this team grow, learn, adapt, bond and excel over the past year-and-a-half has been a privilege. I am so grateful you've allowed us to witness your journey.
That one has become legend in that herd. They watched him fight off 4 attackers to their exhaustion, then broke free to the sea. OCN has just shown you the textbook example of patience, perseverance and dedication.
They tortured him for 45 minutes with bolt cutters, pliers and a pointy stick, but he wouldn't confess anything or rat out his comrades. What a legend.
Denzil you win the Olympic sport of running to catch seals. I’ve never seen someone run as fast as you even in sand. You are an Olympic champion in my book gold medal goes to you.
@@OceanConservationNamibia i never understood you guys.. why you dont bring a lot of fish with you and feed them basicly and then you could give the once who have a net or a hook ect on them soporific OR you could becom friends with them and they would let you pet and you could take the net of their necks
@@soydansogukcesme470 that's simply not how seals work, you cannot befriend them. Also, they are wild animals, for their safety they must not become accustomed to humans or else humans will harm them even more
@@user-ru6ht3vs4g i dont like people like you who always deny things and say that is not possible .. no no no.. their is always a way to make it happen.
@@soydansogukcesme470 well you do that then. It is not possible but I trust you will find a way ! oh no, I forgot the seals would maul you before you even got to pet them.
its truly amazing how you all can basically do surgery on a massive wild animal without putting it to sleep first. I'm sure that seal will never forget that experience.
A tranquilizer would need to have time to wear off after. Don't want him going back into the sea groggy. Would have to be computed so as not to over tranquilize. There are a lot of possible pitfalls with tranquilizers.
@@cindyknudson2715 Tranquilizers are used with sea lions and they have a reversal agent to get them alert more quickly. They'd probably need a vet on the team to use them though, and I'm sure there's some risk involved in using meds.
Through out this whole painful ordeal, no one said "I give up". The words & actions of the Team Ocean Conservation Namibia are beyond reproach. "THANK YOU". (smiles & hugs)
Awesome, congratulation, excellent work! I watch all times, good job. I would not be better in these cases to place a sleeping pill? I think I would suffer less and you would not take risk and physical effort.
Imagine the terror and pain this poor seal was experiencing during this long rescue. Thank you for persevering for such a long time. It was so difficult, but you never gave up.
@@Synch9256 they know. I work as veterinarian, a lot of animals, even wild ones in pain at first resist a lot, but with time they see that they being released or that pain starts to be lighter or pressure of something starts to be weaker and slowly with time animals slowly stop to resist. I had a rottweiler with stuck fork in its mouth, it was so deep that on X ray you could see it almost pushed thru it's nose. That dog hated me every time they brought him and I was sure I will have to sedate him or use general anaesthesia. To my surprise and everyone else after first 2 minutes of struggle, he opened his mouth by himself and was completely calm and waited to be done. What came next I did not expect and no one else, my couleges and me had a suspicion coz of a position of a fork and how deep it was that it was no accidents. They said how their child (15) was giving him a piece of meat on fork. That did not hold a water and what dog done next proved us we were right, dog jumped from a tabel after fork was removed and attacked a kid. Craziest thing was kid found it hilarious. We reported the whole case and found out the dog was removed from them and kid was sent to psychiatric observation.
It seems like the second they got the hook out of his mouth he relaxed. Which means he was fighting so much because it was hurting him that bad. I'm so glad they got the hook out. I cannot imagine the amount of pain that seal had to be in to buck like that. I also hope the rescuers got to rest their forearms. They must've been dead tired.
I'm so impressed with these men! Not only are they rescuers but clearly athletes! They run hard and fast, then wrestle a big, strong animal and save it!! It took three athletic men to sit on Captain Hook. He must have been so very strong! Even the little ones seem to be very muscular too. But I'm enthralled, watching the spotting of the endangered seals, running and catching them, wrestling them while removing the problems, and keeping after it till the job is done!! EXCELLENT WORK!!! I'd love to meet you all. I've never been to Africa but I want to. It's a long way from Dallas, Texas, USA. But I admire you all!!
Yes, they are highly athletic, but it must take its toll on their health over time, just as professional athletes pay a price. But THESE athletes have a higher calling, IMHO. I just hope there will be others to take their place when these dedicated men can no longer do it.
I’m EXHAUSTED! And I’m just lying in bed in California…sometimes straining my own self, willing him to stay still ! You’re the very definition of perseverance and HEART. How I wish the seals were safe from the fishing industry and all the plastic waste in the sea. You saved SO MANY in this - my first night watching - I’m in total awe. Great teamwork! ❤️🩹
@@araelenecaletti1665 Whatever needs help, if I can. Birds, reptiles, various types of squirrel . . . got an orphaned baby otter in one time, but when we called the zoo for feeding advice they were like "WHOA" and came and picked it up to take it to a licensed otter care provider. It was the right decision, and we were a bit naive thinking we could care for it, but it still broke our hearts seeing it go.
Years after the fact and yet I screamed a jubilant "Yesss!!" when the hook finally slipped out! 🥳 What an intense and excruciating rescue for all involved, even us onlookers watching safely from distances in time and space. VERY WELL DONE, YOU GUYS!!! 👏👏👏👏
@@nancywood9531 There is no one in Namibia to look after seals except OCN. No seal specialists to administer tranq darts as you have to be legally licensed to do it.
For helping a bunch of stupid seals who don't understand what they're doing? Bro, keep your blasphemy to yourself. Helping an animal doesn't make you a saint.
@@MontChevalier and where would you may go for degrading other humans? 😇 Sometimes the anger from within is expressed with aggression towards the innocent. 🤬 Find peace within your soul in order to become a human with empathy to those around you. 🫶 ✌️
Those of us who have never wrestled a seal have no idea of their strength. No way to communicate you are there to help. This was an exhaustive task but you triumphed. Thank you so much for doing this extremely hard job.
Guys you are incredible. You should get the Medal of Honor! Such a fight, such perseverance and how strong that seal. Thank you OCN. That was an amazing rescue.
That big guy was strong, smart, and determined! Wow.😲 I'm afraid I would have been tempted to stick my hand in his mouth just to FINALLY get that second hook out. Good thing I'm just an armchair observer, I'm used to having 5 fingers per hand. You four all remind me of Winston Churchill's comment: "Never, never, never give up!"👑👑👑👑
I have seen grown men weeping from having to put a grown seal - that had its face bashed - out of its misery on the West Coast of Sputh Africa. These creatures are deeply entrenched in our hearts 💕
Ребята, вы герои! Бедное животное, как же оно измучилось! Было трудно, вы устали, но вы помогли этому тюленю. Вы замечательные, потрясающие люди! Спасибо, что вы есть, благослови вас Бог. ❤
@@sbelobaba That would be very risky because the seal is being released back in the ocean with predators such as sharks. I would assume the team wants the seals to be alert once they assist them as they can't leave them alone on the beach due to jackals.
@@wendymartin6479 Half sleep doesn't last longer than an hour and after giving antidot a seal wakes up very soon. But actually the guys replied to me saying that they are not veterinarians and there are no veterinary clinics in the area. I still think that it's worth keeping a few sleep shots in their car just for difficult cases like this one and giving a shot is not difficult, one can be taught in half a day.
That seal didn't get that big and strong by laying down and giving up. He was fighting for his life or so he thought. I'm in awe of you determination and strength to never give up on her. Thanks guys you motivate me to do better.

Wow! What a herculaneum effort! These seals are indeed fortunate to have such kind, hardworking and never-give-up guys on their side. You didn’t give up when many people would have. Seriously - the seals thank you.
I wish they had a nitrous oxide tank and face mask for the seal. Give it a few breaths and then snip the hook really quick before it wakes up. I have no idea if that would even work.
Your patience with those poor seals is unreal. I am completely amazed at the time you guys take to get the job done. My heart breaks when I see those poor animals hurt because of Man's carelessness and truly appreciate what you do. I'm just blown away.
Если бы эти животные понимали, что их спасают, уверена, с такими проблемами они встали бы в очередь. Уму непостижимо, как мучился тюлень, от боли, из за крючков во рту. Я всегда радуюсь, как ребёнок, когда кто то из освобождённых бежит в воду.Спасибо, Вам, ребята! За такое благородное дело!
What a show of teamwork, Team OCN! I love how Tony said "we trust you" to Denzil, showing how important trust is in this type of work you are doing. Also, how honest and considering everyone was especially when Wally said he cant feel his hands. This rescue was very demanding and with the seal not cooperating, it was tedious. But it shows how passionate you are in helping them. Always a pleasure to watch what you guys are doing. Hoping for the best and thank you Team OCN!
Honestly, you point out a core component of OCN I didn't realize: communication. Not only do these guys need to communicate where seals are in a succinct manner, but everything else about a rescue from the physical to mental
This literally left me in tears. All for the happiness, patience and perseverance!! You all are IRREPLACEABLE. ❤❤❤ THANK YOU FROM US AND THE SEALS 🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭
This was a difficult and suspenseful rescue; you saved this seal's life! The unparalleled dedication and teamwork of OCN places you in the miracle worker catagory! ❤❤❤
Wow! This pupper is so strong and smart, if he had thumbs, Naude could have just given him the snippers. Amazing animals and top notch crew. Excellent work, OCN!!! 👍😎
Guys, this rescue was nothing but amazing. So much team work, effort, determination to help that big boy....really, you guys are outstanding. Thank you so much. May you all be blessed by mother nature forever and ever.
Thank you all soooo very much for not giving up on reaching that hook and getting it out Thank you all for saving that big beastie!!! Bless you all 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I’d be edging back into the net too! I was literally pulling out my hair and tilting my head as you were trying to turn him. That was a marathon effort and an exercise in team work and compassion for the seal. Thanks everyone!
Oh my, I want to hug you all & the seal. That was INSANE, well done on a particularly brilliant rescue. I feel so proud of you all & hope you had a celebratory drink that night. xx
Ребята, у вас потрясающее терпение и силы! Я восхищаюсь Вами!!! Огромная благодарность Вам за этот благородный труд! С любовью из России!

Those wedges like they use on patients to keep them on their sides might help. Just a suggestion you are the experts. Thank you so so very much for saving the seals. You are truly great people.
You are amazing. You have freed this poor seal from a certain death and life of pain. Tears in my eyes, I thank you for all the seals you have cared so deeply for throughout these rescues.
My God. The patience and dedication is off the charts here, not to mention the strength it took to free that poor seal from a very painful hook in his mouth and thru his eye. I can’t praise you guys enough. God bless you all.
Phenomenal rescue. to think this all started with a one mane rescuer, and now you evolved into a 4 man team of rescuers and this team needed all of you again and again and again. And your techniques have evolved too, and this rescue needed all but the kitchen sink. Great works as always. I couldn't help thinking about the 'scar tissue' case at the beginning. You are the only ones out there doing this, so every re-capture is re-capture of your capture. These numbers seem to be rising, but serve to highlight all the fantastic work you are doing. Thank you, what a team.
I would just like to tell this team, I APPRECIATE YOU and a Thank You from the very bottom of my heart. Not many folks would go through all the trouble you do to give these poor animals a fighting chance in the vicious Circle of Life we're all tumbling through. And even if Dr. Hook and Julius can't express it properly.. THEY Apprecicate you and are Thankful as well. ❤️
Love to watch these great guys work as they workout. I watch them because it takes my mind off our political stew here in US. They are using their strength to help animals,which are my favorite videos. These people are my heroes and I did realize that there are so many of them out there doing good work.
I understand that they are tiring and potentially dangerous, and I appreciate you capturing the seals to make sure that it's not a current entanglement. ⭐
Most intense rescue...huge strong seal with two hooks...one near eye and other in mouth! Looks like he finally relaxed after the hooks were removed. Great teamwork OCN!!
Ale akcja. Musiałem zatrzymywać film, bo tak było dramatyczne. Jesteście wspaniali. Od pewnego czasu oglądam Wasze działania i jestem pod ogromnym wrażeniem tego, co robicie. To jest piękne i szlachetne. Pozdrawiam z Polski. Myślałem, że jestem uświadomiony ekologicznie - absolutnie nie zaśmiecam otoczenia koło siebie - ale to, co Wy robicie i pokazujecie uświadomiło mi ogrom problemu z zaśmieceniem swiata, oceanów, lądów i powietrza, i tragicznego wpływu na bezbronne zwierzęta. Osiem miliardów ludzi, tylko śmiecą, śmiecą i śmiecą - bezmyślnie. Jeśli nie zawrócimy z tej drogi, to nasze śmieci nas zabiją, najpierw zbiją oceany, a w nich zwierzęta, potem lasy, powietrze, a wtedy będzie już za późno, gdy to zobaczymy. Wtedy nic nam nie zostanie. Jeśli teraz nie rozpoczniemy uczenia naszych dzieci już w rodzinach od najmłodszych pierwszych lat, potem edukacja w przedszkolach, w szkołach podstawowych i szkołach średnich i wyższych uczelniach, to zginiemy jako ludzkość, jako gatunek. Samozagłada z głupoty własnej. ... ... ... Czy jest sens o tym pisać? Wszyscy przecież to wiemy. Trudno jest zmienić przyzwyczajenia, przekonania i poglądy, które nam wmawiano i wmawiano przez lata, z pokolenia na pokolenie A wmówiono nam, żeby wybierać polityków do władania ponad naszymi głowami. Z tym właśnie należy skończyć. Zmienić system, bo nas zabije. - „Nie pozwólcie, aby wielkie plany nowego świata odwracały waszą energię od ratowania tego, co pozostało ze starego.” „Główną nauką płynącą z historii jest to, że ludzkość niczego się nie uczy.” „Bez względu na to, jak piękna jest strategia, od czasu do czasu powinieneś spojrzeć na wyniki.” - podobno są to słowa Winstona Churchilla. Tak, właśnie tak powini zrobić wszyscy wyborcy na całym swiecie - bez względu na to, co obiecują nam politycy, jako swoją strategię dobrobytu, wyborcy powinni spojrzeć na wyniki strategicznych obietnic. Co widzimy? Niewobrażlne wydatki na wojny, rozwój super technologii zabijania człowieka, zamiast na rozwój warunków życia, a wystarczy tylko niewielka część tych pieniędzy, aby oczyścić ziemię ze śmieci, usunąć głód i biedę ... ... Jedynym rozwiązaniem jest pozbyć się polityków ... ... Powiesz, że piszę brednie, że to nierealne, ale ... ale o tym wiedzą właśnie politycy, dlatego szukują nam kolejną wielką wojnę, aby pozbyć się nadmiaru ludzi. Dla nas pozbycie się polityków jest nie do wyobrażenia, ale politycy mają taką własnie wyobraźnię. Pozbędą się zbędnego balastu, nadmiaru, przeludnienia. Chore społeczeństwo wybiera psychopatycznych przywódców. Wszędzie. W kazdym kraju. Mimo wszysto życzę wszyskim pokoju i radości.

It was the right decision, and we were a bit naive thinking we could care for it, but it still broke our hearts seeing it go.
Boy, that was so stressful to watch. Gotta feel for the rescuers and the seal. Absolutely amazing teamwork.
What amazing dedication to help a badly injured seal who can badly injure his rescuers.
Мысленно я всегда помогаю Вам!Низкий поклон!Хрании Вас Господь!
Years after the fact and yet I screamed a jubilant "Yesss!!" when the hook finally slipped out! 🥳
What an intense and excruciating rescue for all involved, even us onlookers watching safely from distances in time and space. VERY WELL DONE, YOU GUYS!!! 👏👏👏👏
That was one tough seal. At this point a tranquilizer is needed. I commend your patience and dedication!
I agree! On certain cases a tranquilizer needs to be used so they can work better and better outcome when eyes and mouth or vital organs are involved.
@@nancywood9531 There is no one in Namibia to look after seals except OCN. No seal specialists to administer tranq darts as you have to be legally licensed to do it.
@@shotgunbettygaming that's a shame.maybe one of the guys could get licensed for extreme cases like this or worse.
Tranquilizer for the Rescuers, for after❣❣💯🐾🐾😎😎
They have to do that with sea lions in the US. Those guys get big.
If you hadn’t been so experienced at these rescues this would have taken much much longer
A BIG WELL DONE to you all
Or wouldn't have worked at all.
Yes it would have taken much....like an arm and a leg lol
من یکی از انبوه دنبال کننده های شما هستم و واقعا با ویدیو های شما حال خوبی پیدا میکنم وقتی انسانیت رو به نمایش میکنید .ممنون بیننده ایی از ایران❤
No doubt these men have a special place in heaven waiting for them. Thank you for everything you guys do! ❤
For helping a bunch of stupid seals who don't understand what they're doing? Bro, keep your blasphemy to yourself. Helping an animal doesn't make you a saint.
@@MontChevalier who mad that seals suffer it
the humans again
They are risking to save it better try to respect it and not degrade them

Doing great🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
43 минуты длилось это спасение, по их словам.
Magnificent. Teamwork.
I was tensed up during this entire rescue. I can only imagine what it was like for you guys. Maybe it’s time to revisit the sedation issue.
Господи какой труд и терпение. Хвала вам ребята. Кто спасёт их как не вы .Человеки с большой.буквы❤
Those of us who have never wrestled a seal have no idea of their strength. No way to communicate you are there to help. This was an exhaustive task but you triumphed. Thank you so much for doing this extremely hard job.
This one is going into the seal rescue hall of fame. Outstanding job fellows.
Guys you are incredible. You should get the Medal of Honor! Such a fight, such perseverance and how strong that seal. Thank you OCN. That was an amazing rescue.
That big guy was strong, smart, and determined! Wow.😲
I'm afraid I would have been tempted to stick my hand in his mouth just to FINALLY get that second hook out. Good thing I'm just an armchair observer, I'm used to having 5 fingers per hand.
You four all remind me of Winston Churchill's comment: "Never, never, never give up!"👑👑👑👑
Mientras estás personas luchan PO ayudar éstos al hunos grupos colocando explosivos en oleoductos petroleros contaminando los ríos selvas
Because of you, the seal now live a happy normal life again. Thanks for all your wonderful work. ❤ OCN.
I have seen grown men weeping from having to put a grown seal - that had its face bashed - out of its misery on the West Coast of Sputh Africa. These creatures are deeply entrenched in our hearts 💕
Ребята, вы герои! Бедное животное, как же оно измучилось! Было трудно, вы устали, но вы помогли этому тюленю. Вы замечательные, потрясающие люди! Спасибо, что вы есть, благослови вас Бог. ❤
打暈針太強壯了
The OCN team is professional, dedicated, fast (yeah, Denzil), and caring. You're putting spiritual coins in your bank for the good work you're doing.
I am in utter awe. Some people whine about having a hard day at work because of absolutely nothing. You guys are on another level.
this one made me cry. i felt so bad for the seal, how he must have suffered with that hook in his eye lid. thank god for you guys.
Бедное животное! Спасибо вам, мальчики. Сделали большое дело ❤
Que o Senhor Jesus abençoe à todos 😊

So traumatic, I'm astonished it didn't have a heart attack. You guys are beyond wonderful. This video should go viral.
It was a really tough rescue for sure.. thanks
@@OceanConservationNamibia you guys are some good people for real, i agree with kathleen, keep up your amazing work
Спасибо вам!!!! Вы наши герои!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was a brilliant rescue! The team really profiled their skills.
You guys deserve a medal for that battle ;-)
Can they use tranquilizer? Put him to half sleep. It's been around for ages. Without efforts!
@@sbelobaba That would be very risky because the seal is being released back in the ocean with predators such as sharks. I would assume the team wants the seals to be alert once they assist them as they can't leave them alone on the beach due to jackals.
@@wendymartin6479 Half sleep doesn't last longer than an hour and after giving antidot a seal wakes up very soon. But actually the guys replied to me saying that they are not veterinarians and there are no veterinary clinics in the area. I still think that it's worth keeping a few sleep shots in their car just for difficult cases like this one and giving a shot is not difficult, one can be taught in half a day.
@@sbelobaba oh ok thats good to know. Veterinary medicines are very expensive in southern Africa and also very regulated.
This has to be the longest and most difficult rescue I've seen you guys perform.
Well done everyone.
Putting your own fingers at risk for so long near a seal's mouth to take off that hook ! Living angels 😇
Thanks! You guys do great work. You have reservations in heaven!
Man kann es nicht in Worte fassen was für besondere Menschen ihr seid 💚 Danke 🙏
Supermanns
That seal didn't get that big and strong by laying down and giving up. He was fighting for his life or so he thought. I'm in awe of you determination and strength to never give up on her. Thanks guys you motivate me to do better.
The best comment ♥
Well done. So happy to see people out there literally making a difference, one creature at a time.
OCN team has now reached boss level. This rescue gave them so much XP.
Ready to face Big Boss (the huge one in the episode about Cyclops's rescue), if needs be.
Поклон вам и большущая благодарность за то что вы творите!!!! Обнимаю вас братья!!!! Воля вашему духу вечная. !!!!
Super Job guys. Very impressive work.
The seals are so blessed to have you guys with such dedication to their livelihood. Great job guys and God bless you all.

Wow! What a herculaneum effort! These seals are indeed fortunate to have such kind, hardworking and never-give-up guys on their side. You didn’t give up when many people would have. Seriously - the seals thank you.
Браво, ребята!
Мы гордимся!👏👏👏👏
I was so exhausted just watching. What a wonderful teamwork. Seals health club for sure.
Total marathon ... am totally exhausted after going through that operation. Success is it's own reward for seal and team. 10/10 !!
So was so intense... I was on the edge of my seat !!.... Well done, amazing rescue...Cheers, Blessings!
Ditto. I was stressed so I can't imagine how difficult and stressful it was for the OCN Team.
I wish they had a nitrous oxide tank and face mask for the seal. Give it a few breaths and then snip the hook really quick before it wakes up. I have no idea if that would even work.
@@BrettonFerguson good idea tho
Exactly my words
Your patience with those poor seals is unreal. I am completely amazed at the time you guys take to get the job done. My heart breaks when I see those poor animals hurt because of Man's carelessness and truly appreciate what you do. I'm just blown away.
Если бы эти животные понимали, что их спасают, уверена, с такими проблемами они встали бы в очередь. Уму непостижимо, как мучился тюлень, от боли, из за крючков во рту. Я всегда радуюсь, как ребёнок, когда кто то из освобождённых бежит в воду.Спасибо, Вам, ребята! За такое благородное дело!
So true bro. Wish this was possible
Да, очень переживательно, ощущения, будто сама там помогаешь. Молодцы ребята
Аминь (translated from English - Amen)
I couldn't sit still the whole time watching this awesome rescue..
Thank you for what you do.
What a show of teamwork, Team OCN! I love how Tony said "we trust you" to Denzil, showing how important trust is in this type of work you are doing. Also, how honest and considering everyone was especially when Wally said he cant feel his hands. This rescue was very demanding and with the seal not cooperating, it was tedious. But it shows how passionate you are in helping them. Always a pleasure to watch what you guys are doing. Hoping for the best and thank you Team OCN!
Honestly, you point out a core component of OCN I didn't realize: communication. Not only do these guys need to communicate where seals are in a succinct manner, but everything else about a rescue from the physical to mental
This literally left me in tears. All for the happiness, patience and perseverance!! You all are IRREPLACEABLE. ❤❤❤ THANK YOU FROM US AND THE SEALS 🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭
What an act of kindness towards a beautiful creature! Thanks to all!
Огромные благодарности из России!!!
Вы спасаете и помогаете животным, которым мы же (люди) и навредили...
Итак понятно, что из роzzии. Можно было не уточнять.
This was a difficult and suspenseful rescue; you saved this seal's life! The unparalleled dedication and teamwork of OCN places you in the miracle worker catagory! ❤❤❤
Wow!
This pupper is so strong and smart, if he had thumbs, Naude could have just given him the snippers.
Amazing animals and top notch crew.
Excellent work, OCN!!!

Pas de mot pour décrire ce que vous nous montrez là ! 44 minutes pour sauver ce splendide animal. Mille bravos à vous tous !

Love how you express yourself! Very endearing!
Guys, this rescue was nothing but amazing. So much team work, effort, determination to help that big boy....really, you guys are outstanding. Thank you so much. May you all be blessed by mother nature forever and ever.
Thank you all soooo very much for not giving up on reaching that hook and getting it out
Thank you all for saving that big beastie!!!
Bless you all 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thanks for never giving up even though your bodies were tired. Your committment to saving the seals knows no bounds.❤❤❤ from Canada
I’d be edging back into the net too! I was literally pulling out my hair and tilting my head as you were trying to turn him. That was a marathon effort and an exercise in team work and compassion for the seal. Thanks everyone!
funny me too! and holding my breath
This is indeed one of the most intense rescue!
Bravo for your patience guys!
Oh my, I want to hug you all & the seal. That was INSANE, well done on a particularly brilliant rescue.
I feel so proud of you all & hope you had a celebratory drink that night. xx
I hope they had several drinks that night!

Those wedges like they use on patients to keep them on their sides might help. Just a suggestion you are the experts. Thank you so so very much for saving the seals. You are truly great people.
You are amazing. You have freed this poor seal from a certain death and life of pain. Tears in my eyes, I thank you for all the seals you have cared so deeply for throughout these rescues.
I am soo glad there's people like you on the beaches. Good job!💖
My God. The patience and dedication is off the charts here, not to mention the strength it took to free that poor seal from a very painful hook in his mouth and thru his eye. I can’t praise you guys enough. God bless you all.
Thank you guys for your important work. Sad to see all the troubles the human species is causing other species.
Phenomenal rescue. to think this all started with a one mane rescuer, and now you evolved into a 4 man team of rescuers and this team needed all of you again and again and again. And your techniques have evolved too, and this rescue needed all but the kitchen sink. Great works as always. I couldn't help thinking about the 'scar tissue' case at the beginning. You are the only ones out there doing this, so every re-capture is re-capture of your capture. These numbers seem to be rising, but serve to highlight all the fantastic work you are doing. Thank you, what a team.
I have never seen such commitment and dedication to help animals. All my respect and admiration for what you do 🙏❤️👍
Your whole team is absolutely amazing for helping the animals, because Earth is just as much their home as it is ours.. God bless! 🐾👣😆👍
SUPER GOOD WORK LOVE YOU ALL ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So fit to run as fast as you do thankfully the salt water will clean the wounds .some humans could be moe carefull
I would just like to tell this team, I APPRECIATE YOU and a Thank You from the very bottom of my heart.
Not many folks would go through all the trouble you do to give these poor animals a fighting chance in the vicious Circle of Life we're all tumbling through.
And even if Dr. Hook and Julius can't express it properly.. THEY Apprecicate you and are Thankful as well.
❤️
Love to watch these great guys work as they workout. I watch them because it takes my mind off our political stew here in US. They are using their strength to help animals,which are my favorite videos. These people are my heroes and I did realize that there are so many of them out there doing good work.
Just stop watching the news. Most of it is just fear mongering and propaganda anyway.
Super my brthor thank you
I understand that they are tiring and potentially dangerous, and I appreciate you capturing the seals to make sure that it's not a current entanglement. ⭐
Wow! That was intense. What a smart seal and challenging rescue. Incredible job team, thanks for sticking with it! It's worth every minute.
Thank you so much for the support🙏
Hello 👋
Вьі спасаете не только животньіх, но и мою веру в людей! Спасибо вам!
Поддерживаю!
Existem mais pessoas boas do que do mal...e vcs valem por muitos...parabéns...
Most intense rescue...huge strong seal with two hooks...one near eye and other in mouth! Looks like he finally relaxed after the hooks were removed. Great teamwork OCN!!
Ale akcja. Musiałem zatrzymywać film, bo tak było dramatyczne. Jesteście wspaniali. Od pewnego czasu oglądam Wasze działania i jestem pod ogromnym wrażeniem tego, co robicie. To jest piękne i szlachetne. Pozdrawiam z Polski.
Myślałem, że jestem uświadomiony ekologicznie - absolutnie nie zaśmiecam otoczenia koło siebie - ale to, co Wy robicie i pokazujecie uświadomiło mi ogrom problemu z zaśmieceniem swiata, oceanów, lądów i powietrza, i tragicznego wpływu na bezbronne zwierzęta. Osiem miliardów ludzi, tylko śmiecą, śmiecą i śmiecą - bezmyślnie. Jeśli nie zawrócimy z tej drogi, to nasze śmieci nas zabiją, najpierw zbiją oceany, a w nich zwierzęta, potem lasy, powietrze, a wtedy będzie już za późno, gdy to zobaczymy. Wtedy nic nam nie zostanie. Jeśli teraz nie rozpoczniemy uczenia naszych dzieci już w rodzinach od najmłodszych pierwszych lat, potem edukacja w przedszkolach, w szkołach podstawowych i szkołach średnich i wyższych uczelniach, to zginiemy jako ludzkość, jako gatunek. Samozagłada z głupoty własnej. ... ... ... Czy jest sens o tym pisać? Wszyscy przecież to wiemy. Trudno jest zmienić przyzwyczajenia, przekonania i poglądy, które nam wmawiano i wmawiano przez lata, z pokolenia na pokolenie A wmówiono nam, żeby wybierać polityków do władania ponad naszymi głowami. Z tym właśnie należy skończyć. Zmienić system, bo nas zabije. - „Nie pozwólcie, aby wielkie plany nowego świata odwracały waszą energię od ratowania tego, co pozostało ze starego.”
„Główną nauką płynącą z historii jest to, że ludzkość niczego się nie uczy.”
„Bez względu na to, jak piękna jest strategia, od czasu do czasu powinieneś spojrzeć na wyniki.” - podobno są to słowa Winstona Churchilla.
Tak, właśnie tak powini zrobić wszyscy wyborcy na całym swiecie - bez względu na to, co obiecują nam politycy, jako swoją strategię dobrobytu, wyborcy powinni spojrzeć na wyniki strategicznych obietnic. Co widzimy? Niewobrażlne wydatki na wojny, rozwój super technologii zabijania człowieka, zamiast na rozwój warunków życia, a wystarczy tylko niewielka część tych pieniędzy, aby oczyścić ziemię ze śmieci, usunąć głód i biedę ... ... Jedynym rozwiązaniem jest pozbyć się polityków ... ... Powiesz, że piszę brednie, że to nierealne, ale ... ale o tym wiedzą właśnie politycy, dlatego szukują nam kolejną wielką wojnę, aby pozbyć się nadmiaru ludzi. Dla nas pozbycie się polityków jest nie do wyobrażenia, ale politycy mają taką własnie wyobraźnię. Pozbędą się zbędnego balastu, nadmiaru, przeludnienia. Chore społeczeństwo wybiera psychopatycznych przywódców. Wszędzie. W kazdym kraju.
Mimo wszysto życzę wszyskim pokoju i radości.
I love wally's laughter. Even after watching this rescue numerous times it still makes me smile.
Wonderful human beings! Their joy of a successful rescue is incredibly infectious and causes ME tears of gratitude....what a wonder idea to film these rescues.....it gives those of us watching enormous hope
On behalf of us that can't be there to help these poor animals, Thank you guy's so much for helping these animals. Your generosity is really appreciated. God Bless!
