Seal Wounded By Entanglement
Although it must have been unbelievably sore and painful, we commend the seal for being calm during the whole procedure. It feels totally out of proportion that a few grams of seemingly insignificant plastic can have such a devastating impact. Seals are generally strong and healthy, once the entanglement is removed, the healing starts immediately.

So glad you reached her before she got to the water. She might not have made it back to the beach in time for your next patrol. Thanks, team!🦭🌊
Nice spotting Tony, nice netting Denzil and nice removal Naude. It's bad enough that the poor seal was entangled and to already have a wound, but to have to extract it from the net's zipper is like another horrible rescue. Thanks, OCN heroes, for being there 💙
Antione once again with those Eagle eyes. Thankfully the team joined up and saved this sub-adult. By the looks of the amount of seals in the area, I'm sure more rescues are to come. Thank you Team OCN!

Bit of a slippery customer, however the seal was soon helped back to the ocean by the team. Thankyou OCN. 🤗💝🏴
Hi all! Great team work as always. No matter what is underfoot - sand, mud, stones, sharp shells or old boards, rescuers will still catch the seal and very quickly and carefully remove the deadly debris from its body. We hope that the seal rescued in this video becomes big, wild, and successful in his herd! Thanks guys! Today is April 15, 2024. This amazing channel has 1.91 million subscribers (the number has not changed for 5 days. We are waiting for another 90,000!). Subscribe if you haven't already. By subscribing, liking, commenting, donating and reposting, you help save seals.
Thank you team OCN for giving the seal another chance at life. Heal quickly and completely young one. Blessings to everyone.
Dziękujemy za Waszą cierpliwość i wielkie serce❤🇵🇱👋
The way she was trying to get away told you how badly she was injured 😢 so glad you saw her and managed in time to free her. Heal well lady pinni ♡
Some of those seals have that barrel roll perfected, thankfully Denzil was nearby. Thanks, guys!🦭🌊♻️

The difference with that seals movement to how it moved after was really noticeable. That must have brought such relief. You’re all heroes to us all .
So lucky, you spotted him, and rescued, men ✌❤. Now the beauty seal can heal ❤🦭❤. Thank you OCN men for hard work ❣🌷.
That wound was nasty. Thank you all for saving the seal❤❤❤
It’s almost like she knew you were aiming for her
Your dedication to the seals is as remarkable as all of you thank you
WE LOVE YOU FROM THE USA! WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU ON THIS EARTH. MUCH LOVE AND MORE RESPECT!
After following you guys for about 2 years, I NEVER TIRE of witnessing the heroic and loving work of OCN. May God bless you all in all that you do. Sending love from uk 🇬🇧xx Grub xxx
She seemed already weakened or gasping for air as she ran so it's very lucky you managed to net her before she could reach the water. Hopefully she'll recover completely and get her strength back. Thank you OCN!

Crazy how such a thin line can cut so bad! So glad you got to the seal in time! Bless You guys!!!
Thank you to the OCN team for all your dedicated hard work to save seals. Bless you all!!
He was so wounded he couldn't even run properly! So it was good to see him look stronger after Team OCN removed the killing line. Thank you so much for saving him!

Наши усилия - всего лишь капля в море по сравнению с миллионами тонн мусора, ежегодно попадающими в мировой океан. К сожалению, мы не решаем проблему, а лишь лечим симптомы пластикового кризиса с помощью наших спасательных средств. Эти видеоролики призваны показать последствия этого загрязнения и создать изменения для устранения его корней, а именно нашей зависимости от одноразового пластика, отсутствия правоохранительных органов на море и недостатков индустрии переработки.

Escudriñamos los diferentes grupos de lobos marinos del Cabo con binoculares desde lejos, buscando imperfecciones en su pelaje. Esta es una habilidad que desearíamos no haber tenido que desarrollar nunca, pero lamentablemente ya tenemos mucha experiencia.

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.

Although I’m sure that it isn’t always possible, Denzil seems to always hold the line before using the hook. Just a little thing, but it prevents the line from digging into the open wound when the line is cut. It’s those little things that show the care that he and the others have towards their patients. Well done gentlemen 🦭😅💙

do the animals ever require medical care -more than the removal of the various entanglements?

I think OCN have given this a lot of thought. The seals appear to heal up very well, after the entanglement has been removed and the salty water has done it’s job. Xxx

Cape fur seals thrive in their natural habitat, away from humans, and seawater acts as a very efficient wound cleaner. Thus far, we have never encountered a dead fur seal with the scar of a previous entanglement. It might unfortunately happen, but we believe our success rate is very high.

Ghost gear is any discarded, lost, or abandoned, fishing gear in the marine environment. This gear continues to fish, trap, entangle, and kill marine life.
