Injured sea lion pup desperate for help jumps onto boat in California

This is the heartbreaking moment an injured sea lion nicknamed Amber swims straight up to boat off the Californian coast in seek of urgent help.
The sea lion, which had apparently been attacked by something in the water and was starving, was filmed swimming up to and jumping onto a boat near Laguna Beach in Orange County.
“Amber swam directly for our boat and came aboard without hesitation.
“If she bites, there is a chance of bacteria (or) disease but she was as friendly as a stray dog. She was desperate,” says filmer Hugo Zusho.
Zusho and his friends on the boat took Amber straight to the Pacific Marine Mammal Centre in Laguna Beach to get her the help she needed.
The incident was captured in 2014 but only emerged online in 2018.

Oh, it’s the coolest honor!! There was a wild female mallard at a pond where we walked. She was always getting into various scrapes, and she’d come with her two buddies to find us to help get her out. My husband once jumped off the boardwalk into the mud to scoop her up and used nail clippers to free her from fishing line and a stick in one wing. She sat in his arms patiently then quacked thanks as she went to her friends. Even when she was not in any sort of trouble, she and her friends would seek us out and walk part of the way around the pond with us… And our two large dogs. She wasn’t afraid of any of us.

I've seen a video of a mother goose going to humans for help (whom also happened to be police officers) when her goslings got tangled in fishing line or something like that. Never once showed distrust of the humans and was perfectly willing to let them get near her babies. It's uncanny how even wild animals can sometimes realize that if they are in trouble, humans can help them (and on other occasions, the reverse is also true, like how three *lions* once chased off would-be kidnappers and then sat for hours with the girl that they were trying to kidnap until help arrived....or the multiple stories of dolphins or whales coming to the aid of humans whom are in danger of drowning). I once helped to save a little bird that had gotten it's neck tangled in fishing line from a fishing rod in our neighbor's backyard, I immediately went to my dad (who just happened to be talking to said neighbor at the time) and the three of us went to the little bird and very carefully went about cutting the poor thing free, and our neighbor then immediately took the fishing rods and stored them in his shed to avoid the chance of the same thing happening.

Extreme dehydration.... how... smh

[@Glorfinniel]

@@Rellhill1 Although some marine mammals are known to drink seawater on rare occasion in small amounts, it is not well established that they routinely do so. They have other options: sea-dwelling mammals can get water through their food (example, the moist fleshy meat from fish), and they can produce it internally from the metabolic breakdown of food (water is one of the by-products of carbohydrate and fat metabolism). Considering this seal was malnourished, she was not obtaining proper amounts of hydration from food sources.

Tom Only when you deserve it, because if you're a douchebag, you're a douchebag xo ;-)

[@gulfgypsy]

Now more than ever, we need reminders that being kind, providing help to an animal or person in need, is perhaps the greatest thing a person can do.

[@user-ro4xs5cd9t]

Я уверен, что нельзя животных считать бездуховными! Какие же они умницы. Человек, будь пожалуйста разумным, береги и люби тех с кем общаешься даже посредством знаков и движений.

[@smokeynedith3555]

Happy you were able to help. That pup is ever so grateful. She came to humans knowing humans would help.

[@Rosa-ke4py]

I just love to see how humans help animals when they are in need. Living in peace one with another.

Spend a day down at the slaughter house and report back to me.

In the Ocean:.... Legend says that some of those two legged dry land creatures will help us.

[@celestinocantu6926]

Just like the dolphins will.

[@EthanAnthony907]

IT WAS PROBABLY HIT BY A FUCKING BOAT

[@daynawithawhy]

S. B. Now all the two legged land dwellers have to live up to that legend 😉

[@blissy1]

Looks like the animal helped itself on board, saw no help from those on the vessel

[@zee9709]

And they also destroy our ocean

[@brnuovncs]

These animals are becoming smarter, they know being friends with humans is worth

[@johnnystl1288]

[@shadowhound5113]

Those should be called Sea Puppies. They look like dogs.

[@lucywilliamson9242]

that's why their called sea lions

[@maomio-o7618]

The seals are nicknamed as sea dogs lol But yeah, I agree

[@lisafrequency55]

They remind me of dobermans

[@joliekae]

They are dog mermaids.

[@david-lt9wj]

I've seen them in Newquay....

[@AlliWritesNow]

Bravo- They did a great job, it had to be so tempting to want to reach out and pull the sea lion up... I pray Amber made a full recovery.

[@nicolesummers4495]

This is truly heart warming. Gives me hope in mankind

Wow, dudes, how do you feel after that?? True dogs of the sea seeking help from us. What a wonderful experience, not only to have it on your boat, but you may have saved it's life. Desperation brings us together !

[@TideKnotTravellers]

So great to see evidence of humans helping wildlife! That sea lion looked so relieved to be on board, she knew she had just been rescued. I hope they gave her lots of food, skinny little thing bless her! 😊

[@TideKnotTravellers]

[@ianburrell9116]

What a great little story!....restores your faith in humanity well done guys your true heroes!!

[@CoDKnoedel]

I like how in the last shot, the seal sits there on the Patrol boat with the Sherrif facing it like they just caught a criminal .. again

[@ritterlott9914]

And his mom will come on next and tell you what a good kid he is.

[@illiteratethug3305]

Is this your boat sir? Have you been drinking today at all sir?

I like how people would prefer make jokes about this situation rather than showing empathy, but that what happens in a world filled with ignorant and immature people..smh

[@margeanblake4356]

Thank you for saving this pup and getting it to a facility that can treat it. ❤

This made me cry. Imagine if human beings would treat each other like this

[@waltersobchak7275]

I agree when will liberals learn

[@funnyapples3333]

Whatever your conscience dictates on the awareness of animals... Doesn’t the act of this boater deserve credit for kindness ? I think so...kindness is good for the soul...and everyone came out better in this situation 😉

[@itonlyhurtswhenyoulie]

It must have had a positive interaction with humans in the past.
