Four Baby Seals Rescued From Entanglements
Рет қаралды 77,962
5 ай бұрынToday’s rescue run is a busy one. The rescuers initially targeted one entangled seal, but as they went along, they spotted a total of 4 seals. Three seals were caught in ghost fishing gear, and we cannot assume that they all visited the same part of the ocean. However, we have to assume that the ocean floor is starting to look like a real rubbish dumpster. Even our relentless efforts are just a drop in the bucket.

Four small pups given the chance to grow into healthy adult seals! While Tony was petting him, cutie #1 tried hard to figure out what just happened🥰. Thanks guys, great job!👏❤️

Love how Tony sends off each patient with some parting words. Even little “Grumpy”. This point of the Point group, who try to avoid human interaction as much as possible, still have to deal with the garbage that humans leave behind. Thanks gentlemen for helping them 🦭🌊💙

The most exciting part to me is when a seal is about enter the water and is caught. All entangled seals that are caught will be rescued - you can count on that. Great work OCN. 😊

Hello everyone and good mood! Amazing! I have seen almost all the videos on this channel, but every time I am amazed at how this team works. No matter how many seals they catch, no matter how tired they are from running, there will not be a second of smoking until the last seal is freed. And these words “Sorry you had to wait a long time...” Guys, you are simply wonderful people! Today is January 27, 2024. This amazing channel has 1.79 million subscribers. Subscribe if you haven't already. This develops the channel and means more seals will be saved.

Your ability to spot the seals in difficulty among such large gatherings always amazes me. I know that there's a big difference between looking at video footage and being there on site (eyes vs camera lens), but there are so many things to consider while running and moving through the animals, it's a miracle you're able to catch so many. 🤗 On the other hand it's very unfortunate that there are so many entangled seals in the first place. 😞 Thanks for your incredible work! 💚

We scan the different groups of Cape fur seals with binoculars from far away, looking for imperfections in their fur. This is a skill we wish we never had to develop, but we are unfortunately very experienced by now.

Great saves out of a large colony of seals. It seams that the pups are usually the ones with the most trash affecting them. Thankfully Team OCN is very dedicated to tirelessly work to save these bautiful animals, and the crew of "Cutting the Line" is there to document this, and spread awareness to the masses.
@OceanConservationNamibia 5 ай бұрын
The pups are more curious and playful compared to the adult seals. Therefore, they get entangled more.

Leider lösen wir nicht das Problem, sondern behandeln mit unseren Rettungen lediglich die Symptome der Plastikkrise. Ziel dieser Videos ist es, die Folgen dieser Verschmutzung aufzuzeigen und einen Wandel herbeizuführen, um ihre Wurzeln anzugehen - nämlich unsere Sucht nach Einwegkunststoffen, die mangelnde Strafverfolgung auf See und die Mängel der Recyclingindustrie.

Naszymi ratunkami niestety nie rozwiązujemy problemu, a jedynie leczymy objawy kryzysu plastycznego. Celem tych filmów jest pokazanie konsekwencji tego zanieczyszczenia i wprowadzenie zmian mających na celu walkę z jego korzeniami - mianowicie naszym uzależnieniem od jednorazowych tworzyw sztucznych, brakiem egzekwowania prawa na morzu i niedociągnięciami branży recyklingu.

You guys are awesome. I think thier should be a program to get young people involved what your doing so this work can continue for generations. Young people should get involved just for awareness alone. Fishermen should be required to spend a few days working with you guys or a week so they can learn the damage they cause using illegal nets. Those nets need to be banned. Finding out who makes those nets and shutting down those factories, or forcing them to build safer nets. I guess what I’m saying is we need solutions and awareness.

5:01 I had this strong feeling that the seal wasn't going to run away (it was actually an experience). They mentioned that it was the first seal caught, and I noticed that when they're made to wait a long time, they tend to calm down and not immediately run away. (Their panic hormones maybe dies down a bit. Or who knows, maybe the other seals communicated that they were ok.)

Brilliant work, Team OCN. Best not be too hard on yourselves for the loose strand of net on the seal pup. Ocean rubbish is like a cancer that attaches/intertwines with marine life, so it sometimes takes a a double or triple go to rid them of these tangles. Eat well, sleep good to recover strength & know the world is cheering you on.🩵💙🙌🏻🦭🦭

I hear you, and as I have told you before I too am working circuitously as a writer/author in order to help solve this problem with my contribution being to make the global community aware that we do indeed already have the federal funding to solve the waste disposal problem which solution is the electronic generation of we the peoples' $s which is called the reality of the Equity Spending (ES) process that is more commonly known as deficit spending and or quantitative easing (QE). It's just that our man species is very, very resistant to change especially when it involves admitting being wrong about something as simple as ES. @@OceanConservationNamibia
