@Ирина Амлински I'm assuming you are a professional at this type of stuff. 😐 Since YOU seem to watch daily, as I watch their videos everyday, you should know that HALF of the time the hook WON'T CUT! In addition, Tony did what he could by himself! Clearly, this was a challenge for him. Most of their videos are less than 5 mins. He was working on this case for 10+ minutes trying his hardest not to further hurt this seal AND not injure himself. He handled it amazingly! So... you go out there and do what these awesome people do everyday. Make sure you avoid getting bit or injure your body holding down a stong seal. If not... sit down, shut the eff up and stop watching this channel if it bothers you so damn much.

@@graciousgraingrinder4992 professionals of all sorts are reviewed, and review, video of their performance. They do this in order to improve their craft. Articulate criticism is an invaluable aid in improving performance. This video includes footage of a poorly maintained, or worn, tool.

@Ирина Амлински I saw much of what you saw. It seemed to me he uses a poorly maintained, or worn, tool.i have worked in many trades in which sharp tools are a necessity. Knives, chisels, chainsaw blades, saw blades, scissors, hooks and razors all require regular maintenance to perform well. A sandy work environment presents many serious challenges to keeping a fine edge on a tool. I believe that better edge maintenance would solve, or at least lessen, many of the shortcomings you noted. Good job with the time stamps.

@Ирина Амлински there is a saying which in going to adjust a bit to respond to you. Those who can, do. Those who can’t, criticise! Tony was doing a rescue alone, without the benefit of his team’s back up. The seal was a fighter, forcing him to basically work with one hand on a thrashing patient, with a tool that unexpectedly malfunctioned. He was out in the sun, wind, and sand working up a set and dodging painful bites to save an innocent animal from an awful death. You were sitting in your comfortable chair nicely criticizing Tony, and even criticised the other viewers for their own comments. You even made a point to time stamp example examples - since you have so much time on your hands, I'm assuming you don't do rescues on your own. That means of that poor seal had to rely on you instead of Tony, had be dead now from starvation or infection.

@Ирина Амлински If the rescue process were as easy as you say, then everyone would do it and the world would be all rainbows and lollipops... ... but on the beach, in real time, the 'surgeon' has to make snap decisions to (a) save the seal and (b) not cause it too much stress. This seal is alive now, thanks to Tony, and the blood was soon washed away by the sea. Personally, I've had that much blood from a knife cut in the kitchen and I managed to survive. The fact that your judgmental comment is the only negative one should tell you something.

​@Ирина Амлински When the seal is in the net he finds the line and removes it. He even says it was ripped out of the wound during the netting, so it is loose and he can remove it quickly. Removing an object from a wound usually causes blood flow, because the body is desperate to heal even with the object inside. That does not mean you shouldn't get it out in these cases. I see your ironic comment on people 'not watching the release process', while you yourself missed an important part, while furiously writing a negative comment.

Thank you guys for the love and skill you show these animals! Tony, I love how you talk to them, a friend, someone they can trust. This rescue was truly epic… an example of strength, courage, and compassion. You were alone and handled it beautifully! Thanks for filming and sharing! Here I am in a landlocked state in USA and you bring me a part of the world I love! Thanks again! Of course I’ll support your efforts!

That was heartbreaking but incredibly awesome and, I don't say this lightly, inspiring.

@@OceanConservationNamibia Is your organization against commercial fishing, because it usually is a big part of a country's economy, especially those on the coast or those that are an island, or fishing in general?

@@fart63 The US EPA has strict laws on the books regarding the environment. Whether they are enforced around the entire coastline, and coastal waters consistently is something else. So much of enforcement here is politically motivated, however. What is seen in international waters, and in other countries regarding the environment is sad. Many countries have corrupt governments, and no EPA equivalents, and anything goes, unfortunately. 😔
