35 Minutes Long Seal Rescue
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ธ.ค. 2023
- Gill nets are illegal in Namibia, but we still find seals entangled in them. This net was in good condition and must have been used recently. Fishermen are well aware of the laws regarding the usage of specific fishing equipment. However, they continue to break the law. Without strict enforcement, those responsible will continue to walk free. This poor animal had to suffer through 35 minutes of being pinned to the ground and having people poke into her skin to pull out the thin lines. No animal deserves to go through such an experience. This has to STOP!

Thank you to the entire OCN Team for working so diligently to remove that dangerous gill net and rescuing the seal from that nightmare.
Yep 35 minutes is a long workout.
Wow! That was quite a rescue! She wouldn’t have lasted long tangled up like that. The way she opened her mouth wide when you released the net from her mouth was just wonderful to see. Thank you!
Imagine being entangled in this illegal gill net? Around the world, SPEAK OUT to your representatives! Tell them you want fisheries to be responsible and accountable!
YOU vote politicians in office, YOU have the power to help by being their voice.
Her reaction when Naude cut the lines going in and around her mouth said it all. Her fate was sealed if the team had not spotted her and managed to cut all that awful gill net off her. Outstanding rescue. Thank you OCN!
Thank you my heroes for saving her ❤️ greetings to all 😊🙋🏻 and wishing you all a nice weekend 😊
Have a good weekend yourself.
@@haggielady Thank you 😊
Yes. Well done, indeed. That was brutal.
Just imagine, wrapping the sailors and all those responsible for this and so many other seals’ nettings into this same netting and telling them: ok now you work and feed yourself and your family. So many things to say, I’m so angry at what this poor animal had to suffer and she didn’t give up! Thanks OCN, that was an incredible save!
What an ordeal!!!!! That poor seal may not have understood what was being done, but I’m sure she felt immense relief afterwards. ❤
Good day to all!
These seal rescue videos are so unique, so interesting (albeit sometimes sad) that I would gladly watch all 35 minutes, or much more. So much patience is needed to remove this nasty gill net that was already strangling the beautiful seal girl.
December Day 16: This amazing channel has 1.78 million subscribers. Let's like and subscribe - this also helps the channel. I am grateful to the team for saving lives.
Good day, Olga.
@@LiamWakefield ,🖐
Good girl! She showed up for her appointment and submitted to the treatment good going guys.
That poor girl would not have survived much longer with that awful entanglement. Excellent rescue. Beautiful to watch her head for the water. ❤
The seal would have slowly starved. Awful predicament seal was in. Great teamwork. A very long and complicated rescue. Luckily you spotted her. A relieved and grateful seal, too. Well done. ❤❤❤
Great work guys! Saved her from a painful death!
Wow, guys, that was a rescue and a half wasn't it? What a lot of net that the poor seal was tangled up in. Well done, guys, that was a lot of work, for you and for the seal being held for a long time, but you got it free and that's the main thing. 👍👍
OMG!!! That Had to be one of the Longest Rescues EVER!!! Great Job Seal HEROES!!!
Thank you so much for your hard work freeing the seal from that horrible gill net. She was a little bit feisty even though she hadn't been able to feed, but she didn't seem to fight you too much, and must have realized you were helping her.❤
Poor girl was a hot mess! That was excellent teamwork as usual. Thanks for saving her.
It never ceases to amaze me how dedicated and caring this team is. How you are able to find these suffering seals among the huge community. And the sense of relief that another beautiful soul has escaped the pain, the injury and a slow, torturous death. You are awesome
That was quite the rescue for the seal and workout for you. ❤
Incredible save, poor baby she was so tangled up in that horrible net, it's amazing you were able to finally set her free. Thank you for being her heroes.❤️
I could actually FEEL her relief. You are all angels. Thank you for working to save her, the seals, and the planet.
This was a fantastic rescue! I am sure the seal is very relieved to have the net removed from its body.
What a great rescue! 😎🇨🇦😎
BRAVO OCN TEAM!! We felt anxiety with this rescue, it was like a surgical operation with a lot of problems to solve but with a happy ending.
I worry that you will find more seals entangled in this net--there must be a big piece of it floating in the ocean nearby. That rescue was hard on the team as well as the seal! Excellent work, guys!👏💪
I’m sure I can hear all of the subscribers
Clapping and cheering!
What a brilliant rescue!
The piece of carnage floating indiscriminately
In the sea to be picked up to inflict
The pain and distress to this poor seal.
Oh ! Well done team, marvellous team work!
What a bugger rescue! The perseverance of OCN is unmatched! The dedicated team will not release before getting every last bit of net! Thanks to all!!! 🥰🥰🥰
Poor seal, it took a while to sort out the situation with the horrible entanglement, but seeing the seal take off back to the ocean was fantastic . Thankyou OCN. 🤗💝🏴
You guys do the impossible! Thank you all for saving this feisty girl!
Love the longer Saturday videos. It is like a treat for the viewers who have made it through the long week. Definitely not a treat for that poor girl who was the star of today’s episode. Wonder if that strategy of trying to catch the line in the zipper was something new. Well done gentlemen and well done Miss Seal for not giving the team too much attitude (that we could see, anyway)
Shame! BUT what a relief for her. Thank you OCN, you're the BEST of the best on the planet, appreciate your love and care for these helpless seals
Heroic work on this rescue! Well done, guys, and thank you!
All we animal lovers owe you guys a huge debt for what you do. I hope you have a fab time over Christmas and keep up the good work.
Thank you for everything you guys do.
Wow - that was a long rescue!! 🧜🏽♀💜🦭
Dr. Naude, Dr. Tony, and Dr. Denzel your surgery was successful, the patient lived to eat another day. Thank you rescuers you did a valiant job, it really did take
the three of you to perform this task.
UNBELIEVABLE dedication from you guys. Well done
I enjoy the longer seal rescues so I was really excited when I saw the title of this video... Thank you for leaving out what I can only presume were the boring bits....😉
Thank you, team OCN.
Wow, that was a special rescue - brave seal 🙏
Какое сложное опутывание мучило животное, спасибо за избавление от страданий и спасение жизней.Вы Рыцари Добра ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would have watched the whole 35 minutes. You are heroes. Thank you so much!!
Great job, guys!
Какое сложное запутывание! Какая долгая и тщательная работа! Я очень рада, что тюлень свободен! Ребята , вы большие молодцы! Люблю вас всех!
Great rescue!
Хорошая работа , дорогие спасатели! Одни люди не думая, выбрасывают сети в море, чтобы потом другие люди , рискуя своей безопасностью, освобождали несчастных животных от неминуемой смерти и страшных и долгих и болезненных мучений! Вы-руки Бога! Преклоняюсь❤️🙏🤗
Amen!!!🙏🌎😇… Sooo Much Love, Respect, Appreciation & Admiration For these Earth 🌎Angel’s😇 @….
#OceanConservationNamibia🙏💙🇺🇸🌎
That was a terrible entanglement!! Thank you, thank you, thank you OCN for never giving up, and always look for the best way to help those poor creatures!!! oh! and Tony; like a good seal whisperer, always thinking for them…. (maybe she understand what we are doing)😍
Спасибо Вам за вашу доброту
She had to be scared by all what as happening to her. But it was way better than living a slow death for sure. Thank you Team OCN for spending the time and patience to remove this net properly. If these nets are illegal, where are your tax dollars going to have your countries' Coast Guard or Division of Fisheries out doing their job to stop and citate these vessels?
Ребята,вы делаете огромную работу по спасению животных!!! Будьте здоровы!!! Удачи вам!!!
poor thing why did you go and end up in this mess. But if its anyone that can work efficiently and be gentle in their actions its Tony, Naude and Denzil. ❤
The dream team.
Благодарю и принимаю. Ребята ваша работа очень ценная для нашей матушки планеты. Люблю вас
Oh my gosh, guys. That made me cry. Thank you for helping her. She needed you so badly due to human stupidity. ❤ OCN
Glad you all saw her and freed her from that death trap. I am sure she is a happy girl now!
Oh, she must feel so much better. Go catch fish now, girl! Thank you, OCN for saving her. I loved your recent newsletter. ❤️
What an intense rescue. I always get worried when you have those instruments close to the eye. The seals just don't cooperate. They don't know you're trying to help. But you guys did a great job!
That gill netting is so all encompassing. A multiple wound maker. I’m so glad you found her! ♥️ Much love!
Wow that was a disgusting amount of gillnet! Thank you for rescuing another precious animal - God Bless you ALL ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ from me in PE
I'm so glad you found her in time to save her.
Congratulations on all the seals you saved this year. Hopefully there won't be as many needing saving next year. I wish you all the happiest of holidays. God bless you all.
What a difficult rescue. No doubt she knew you were saving her life! Thank you again, OCN.❤
Strength, determination, and expertise! Thank you OCN 😊
Awesome rescue, thank you all of you, we'd have lots of dead seals and other sea animals if not for you all 6 of you. Thank you so much for what you all do
It may have been a long entanglement but it was well worth thr rescue! She must have been so relieved. Thx for all you do to help the seals!❤
What a horrid entanglement, and Herculean effort to save her. Outstanding!!!!!!!!!❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍AWESOME
Jakby na Was czekała😂 Dzięki Waszej pracy ,cierpliwości i wielkiego serca teraz jest wolna !!!! Dziękujemy niezmiennie❤❤❤🇵🇱👋
You are so committed and caring. Thank you for freeing the seal. Great work, team OCN!
Oh, poor thing!!! Such a big piece of gillnet and such a strenuous rescue for all of you!!!! Thanks for your persistence and relentless efforts!!!
It's been well over a year since my dad and I ate fish--thanks OCN for opening our eyes.
I said on a previous video that everyone needs to see it on full blast. Add this one to the list. People need to become aware of the crap we treat so indifferently and how it is destroying our planet and life. Thank you team for your work trying to save the planet from its own short-sightedness.
Boa tarde abençoada para todos vocês meus amiginhos anjos do mar que Deus abençoe vocês 🙏🙏 beijinhos 🌲🌲🌲
I'm clapping for your loving work.💖💖thank you
That was a tough one. Great teamwork and patience.
Belíssimo trabalho, Deus abençoe muito a essa equipe 🙏🙏🙏
Parabéns a todos daqui da Europa lindo vídeos
Thanks dear friend
Thank you very much for this rescue❤️💐 Greetings from Germany 😍👍
Какие вы молодцы! 🙂😘💓
Oui c'est bien ça au moins 35 minutes d'actes chururgicaux, de concertation, rien n'est laissé au hasard pour parvenir à délivrer cette belle créature de ce piege immonde. La victime participait comme le dit Tony au début du sauvetage. Ça fait vraiment de la peine de voir un de ses yeux atteint par ce filet, on voyait qu'elle suivait l'opération. Ce fut encore un moment fort que vous nous faites vivre. Merci à vous trois pour ce travail incroyable, mêlant dextérité et courage. OCN ❤
So much suffering prevented. You guys are the best.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving your all for that lucky lady. All four of you (3 guys and seal) were fatigued to the max. But the best part is you all went separate ways freely!❤❤❤❤
You just gave that seal the best Christmas present it could ever get! May it, the OCN Team, all the viewers and the entire seal colony have a safer and better 2025! Happy New Year, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all, no matter how you celebrate the season!
Parabéns HERÓIS ❣️
Another magnificent rescue. Thank you God bless & protect team OCN❤❤❤
Danke fürs Zeigen und eure wunderbare Arbeit. Nur so geht es. Ihr befreit die Tiere und klärt gleichzeitig ganz viel Menschen auf, die weder am Meer leben noch sich mit Treibnetzen auskennen. Macht weiter und lasst euch nicht entmutigen. Wir sind so viele aus so vielen Ländern, die alle das eine wollen, dass es der Erde, ihren Tieren und uns Menschen gut geht.
Well done guys. Incredible rescue.
That gillnet is so very horrible😢 Impressive rescue! 🌊🦭✂️🌍💙

Thank God Team OCN was able to rescue and save her from sure agonizing death 🙏🦭🥰🙏
Thank you OCN For your continued HEROIC .. sadly necessary .. work❣️
🎉 Wishing you and yours a wonderful joyous Christmas, and a promising healthy happy 2024 🎉 🥰 🎊
Good job. True heroes.
We are unfortunately only treating the symptoms of the plastic crisis with our rescues. The goal of these videos is to show the consequences of this pollution and create a change to tackle its roots - namely our addiction to single-use plastics, the lack of law enforcement at sea and the shortcomings of the recycling industry.
thank you you never give up and always treat the seals as the sentient animals that they are. I'm sure she new you were trying to help the look in her eye and when she ran off it wasn't so much fear and freedom from the entanglement.
Das war richtige Schwerstarbeit für Euch, Danke Team-OCN.
