It's really adorable when they're so obviously confused by what just happened. "This apex predator caught me, then relieved my pain, then let me go??? ....What???????" The way they stare back at you like they're computing this absolute madness is super cute.

@@Ghost-jx5hjnah, no wild thing is gonna "give up" they just realized that the creature that got them didn't do them any harm (for now) and are trying to be careful so they do not make it hostile for real!! The seal even tried to scape again once the person filming moved towards it again. It's just like insects! They sometimes do not move when faced with predators so they can properly assess the situation and to not show any signs of weakness.

I really hope that the pups will start to recognize that they are help, and with each new generation, they will understand what they are there for. I know sharks have recognized the people who have pulled hooks out of them 10-15 years after the fact, and maybe it’s silly, but I think the pups are figuring it out.

It wasn’t playing dead. Seals enjoy relief of pain just as much as humans, and it was also happy that the tension and tiredness of trying to get that piece of junk off it!
I think it just realized they were helping and relaxed. Layed there to see if they were done. Was probably instant relief when they cut that line
