For five years I volunteered daily, rehabilitating harbor seals, elephant seals, and Northern fur seals at FreeFlight in Bandon, Oregon. Those years were the high point of my life. This video so moves me because I know the endless hours of dedicated and often heartbreaking work behind those joyous releases. Thank you so much for the difficult and loving work you do to save these ensouled children of the sea and give them back to her whole and free.

Beautiful! God bless you for your care and compassion towards these sweet animals.

What a wonderful and inspiring video! I am so happy to be a supporter of this amazing place and the work it does. To see these beautful creatures recovered and returning to the sea is worth everything!

Thanks and major kudos to everyone involved there! You do such great work; very inspiring. I wish more people appreciated and cared for these wonderful animals!

Wonderful! ☺💜

@AngeLsLuv The "party hats" are temporary and will fall off at their next molt if not before. It helps identify the animals and track them. I think those are just numbers that can be observed from a distance. Sometimes actual radio tracking devices are used to track how deep the former patients are diving and chart their swimming patterns.

For animals should be living in the wild

Are any of the animals afraid to go back to the ocean?

i want to volunteer here sooo bad. can college students volunteer?? n what are the requirements??
