Entanglement Too Strong For Rescue Hook
Although this was not the most pleasant way to free this baby seal from his entanglement, now he is free and we hope he doesn’t get himself in such trouble again. Tony managed to pull the double-looped fishing line off the seal. Without our intervention, once a seal gets stuck in such a loop, it becomes a ticking time bomb.

I'm glad Cyclops didn't sound the alarm...he knows that you are helping. Thanks, Tony!👏

As you said, "The entanglement is removed and the pup will be ok." Even if you didn't cut it, the issue was resolved. Great job Antoine! I think the bull was posturing. (The one on the left) kind of saying, "I see you, I am not gonna do anything about you....yet! But know that I will take you out if I feel threatened by you!" Stay safe Antoine and all OCN team members! We 💗 you.

Little pup thought he would hang out with the big boys. Perhaps they told him where to nap so he could get rid of his double looped death necklace. His little cry for help was pitiful but the help that Tony provided saved his life. Well done Tony and well done puppy! 👍🌊💙

That little guy being there was so odd. Maybe Cyclops really did bring him there, at least I can dream he did. Thank you Toni.
The ‘hook’ didn’t function exactly like you wanted but you got the entanglement off the young guy! Thank you for saving his life. ❤❤❤
For a moment it looked like tug-of-war. Fortunately the entanglement was still loose enough and Antoine was able to pull it over the seal's head. Thanks Antoine!👍💕🦭

Our efforts are just a drop in the bucket compared to the millions of tonnes of trash entering the world's oceans every year. We are unfortunately not solving the problem, but only treating the symptoms of the plastic crisis with our rescues. These videos aim to show the consequences of this pollution and create a change to tackle its roots - namely our addiction to single-use plastics, the lack of law enforcement at sea, and the shortcomings of the recycling industry.
I was in particular awe of the shadow of the seal being cast on the boat in the background - that was pretty cool.

I think that was actually a seal. I was trying to figure out if it was a shadow I was seeing, but they were in the shade, and it looked like it was a seal when he got closer.

I noticed that, too! The morning sun and all the shadows with the light breeze blowing and the juxtaposition of the seals against the dock walls created a very artistic and special video. And another pup saved. ❤

Hi all! What great guys everyone is here. And Cyclops and the puppy and Tony! Everyone did great. Such a strong fishing line would not have allowed the seal to survive, but, thanks to Tony, this did not happen. Today is April 26, 2024.

It was not easy task, but Tony managed very well. Cyclops nearby. Thank you, Tony you saved the puppy's life ❣. Have a good weekend, OCN Team, and your family 👋🌷💐🌷.
Another day with another save, love this team🙏🏾🌊.
Maybe Cyclops actually guided the youngster there, knowing help would be available as he, himself, had been helped more than once. Wouldn't that be something? Glad the looped line slipped over the juvenile's head. There's more than one use for the hook on a pole. Thank you Antoine and OCN for saving him.
Thanks again OCN!🦭❤️🙏🇺🇲🇳🇦
Awwwe!!🥹… I Loved the Lil’ Half Handstand he did to help Tony release him from the Awful entanglement!!💖🤗😍😘…. Great Job Tony!!!🙏🤗🥰😘… God Bless… #OceanConservationNamibia!!🙏💙🇺🇸🌎
That seal on the left (Cyclops?) was so big, I thought at first he was a shadow on the side of the container😮❣ Thank goodness you didn't have to tackle him 😱 Well done, Antoine, for removing the line from the seal. He is now entanglement free, so it's definitely a win😊

The consideration you have for them is heartwarming… and we love to hear how to talk to them Antoine… OCN… they can’t tell you how much it means to them to be relieved from the entanglements… but they know you all, in the sense that they stay alert but they don’t just run off at the sight of you all except in a chase… and that’s great…
Well done Tony, it had a happy ending thanks to you.
