Family Seal Rescue

Naude and Katja, the founders of OCN were asked to take their kids on a seal rescue, and have their kids interview Naude while doing so. The family had an awesome time out there, and so did Nina, Dylan and Marley. 🦭

Thank you Naude and your family for caring and helping the cape fur seals ❤️ greetings to all 🙋🏻😊

[@bho5sumkyul]

Naude: ". . . it makes me really happy to help these animals because they can't help themselves." This is, I think, an essential part of OCN's raison d'être. And I wholeheartedly support their rescue efforts!

[@jimmie200]

The children asked intelligent questions.

They were so sweet!💕💕💙

It is really an important task you do OCN educating the new generations. That is where the changes hopefully will come.

[@eponack]

Educating old farts, like me, too. Been a pescatarian for 20+ years. After watching these videos and seeing what devastating consequences there are from the fishing industry put me off fish.

[@zig_the_zag]

@@eponack Well done! I was pescetarian as well from 2008 - 2019. Then became vegan 💚🌱, best decision ever.

So important! These guys are the best! Hopefully everyone who watches will try to reduce the harm they inadvertently cause to our animal friends.

Yup vegan here now too. Just all around feel better. This doing what I can where I can. Supporting this channel is so important because I see first hand the positive impact you make. ❤❤❤ Thank you.

[@arifshahabuddin8888]

Ikr? I've come to watch OCN's daily video in the morning before anything else. Helps set my day right!

[@winnepeterson7740]

I watch them every single day. So uplifting!

[@freebird7017]

So good to see the seals hitting the water and torpedoing out. Your kids are so sweet.

[@artwillvideos]

I said out loud, “that seal hit the water and took off like a rocket!” But I guess torpedo is the appropriate analogy! 😂👍🏽 💦 🚀

[@HandyHelons]

It was incredible wasn’t it!

[@winnepeterson7740]

I love that you love rescuing seals and I love “meeting “ your children. They are delightful!

[@Juliozz3]

I wonder if that second seal was calm because it saw Antoine helping and releasing the first one. Great job!

[@Smith-he6bg]

Probably! And also maybe hearing the children’s voices was calming.

[@LifeJUSTLife]

It really is a relief to see the new generation interested in nature conservation. It is even nicer to see the dad responding sympathetically and looking into the children's faces. Good dad! And good all for giving the other puppies their freedom back. 💕😊🇮🇹💕

[@b.a.erlebacher1139]

You can see what a great dad he is when he tells them to stand back and they do so immediately. They trust what he says is the right thing to do. He is probably always honest and straightforward with them. That's the kind of parent we should all try to be!

[@lesliesagara8739]

That was so moving - sharing your important rescues with your family and allowing the children to ask any questions they wanted. Bravo to you guys on so many levels of positive humanity.
