2 'Well-behaved' Seals Rescued from Entanglement

Two strong and healthy and very "well behaved" seals were rescued on this day - one was caught in packing strap, the other one had a few strains of fishing line tightly wrapped around his chest. He showed visible relief when the last part of the entanglement was cut, he could finally breathe again! He sniffed around the net for a little while and then waddled back into the ocean. A successful morning for the rescuers from Ocean Conservation Namibia! 🦭

Somewhat heart-warming to see his mates standing guard over him.

I really feel for the pups when they congregate together. But they don't realize it's to save their lives. You are wonderful people. ❤️

I love how Tony talks to the seals like they're babies. Thank you for another great rescue guys. 🙂❤

Word’s got around “If you get caught in a net, behave” because they will help you.

I love how Antoine taks to the seals. It's like he's talking to a puppy (of the canine variety).

That was cute the way they hung out with their netted friend.

Wally to Tony: "You got this." Indeed! 👍👏🦭🌊

At 2:51 team members run to work on an entangled seal in a net. The animal can't move, but still they run to it because they want to minimize the trauma for the seal.

God put ever life here for a reason... thank you for saving their lives.

I think the poor little guy was taking the first deep breaths that he’s has in some time. What a relief that must be.

2:52 “Don’t worry buddy, we’ll get you out the net.” The team start running back “Sorry Bob, you’re on your own!”

"You took my fishing line, I'm taking your net! How else will I catch fish?" The sea is that way. "Oh right I'm a seal."

That second seal was a fat little chubby guy. Industrial strength cute🥰. Thanks guys, you have such a great thing you all do!
