Baby Seal Rescued From Fishing Line

The rescuers have spotted 3 seals with entanglements in a group of a few hundred individuals - and those are just the ones they can see, there are very likely even more cases. They approach from both sides and try to keep their eyes on the targets while identifying additional victims of ocean rubbish. Naude and Tony are both successful and catch one, and Wally jumps right in and helps with the rescues - first Tony's baby seal, and then Naude's bigger seal in the net. Both seem to have caught their entanglement recently, there are no visible injuries or wounds, they are both expected to recover very quickly from both - the entanglement and the rescue. They will try and find the third seal another day. 🦭

That first little seal was laughing with delight as he ran off after being freed from his entanglement (2:18). So cute! 🥰. Thanks for freeing all of these precious creatures, Team OCN! 👏🏼😊

I have so much respect for OCN. I haven't commented in awhile. I hope Tony's wounds are healing. I'm grateful for what you do. Life is precious. Merry Christmas to ya'll.

That puppy was the fluffiest seal you've ever rescued.

[kellycarter]

When the big seal got out of the net, Wally stood his ground like he would tackle her! You all are getting faster and bravery and more experienced every day! Bravo team!
