6 week old baby seal entangled and rescued
Naude could hardly believe his eyes when saw this entanglement this morning. In a nursing group of new pups, there was a sleeping baby with a fresh entanglement around his neck. These pups are all only around 6 weeks old, and have only started swimming for the first time in the last 3 weeks. He walked up to the sleeping baby and managed to grab him without the pup even waking up.
There were 2 loops of illegally dumped gillnet tight around his throat, but luckily he must have just picked it up in the last few days, and the lines hadn't done any damage yet. These lines would surely have choked him to death soon, as they grow so fast in the early development days. He now has the chance to live a long and happy life. 🦭

I legit laughed out loud when that pup trampled his fellow pups. It's like you could hear him yelling, "That's what you lazy jerks get for not coming to my aid when I called you guys!" as he ran towards the wall of seal moms. Side note: I truly hope Antoine will be back sometime this year! As much as I love and am addicted to all of these rescue videos, there is just something really special about hearing the adorable Antoine sweet-talking the seals and calling them puppies! "Hello, puppy!"

I don't think that the pups have honed their danger instinct yet; I've noticed that past rescues involving pups tend to be more calm. It's like everything is new to them and they haven't learned to be nervous yet. Hopefully they don't learn to be comfortable around humans, but I'm so glad that OCN is doing good work to remove the unnatural danger made by humans.

I like how the one pup is staring at you the entire time (the only one awake), and saying to himself "I thought the hairless penguins had fish. That's what the bigger ones said"
In Hawaii, Uncle/Aunty is used to refer to elders, regardless of familial connection, out of respect & endearment. You have definitely earned the term “Uncle Naude” as you saved the pup.🦭😁 All those pups were so precious! Mahalo Nui Loa for another amazing video!! 🐳🏝☀️
