Fishing Line Cuts into Seal's Jaw

[@ladybug91969]

The banter between you was quite entertaining…Naude “I’m water skiing here” Naude to Tony “Bully!” That was an amazing, exhausting rescue. You knew he was out there because you saw him a few weeks ago and you never gave up! You never do! He would not have made it without you all! Thank you for being the Heroes that these precious seals need so badly! Love and admiration always🦭♥️🙏♻️

[@banangebliss3387]

I had to chuckle at the beginning when the seal was just sitting up like seals do but still covered in net lol. Great job guys-you’re amazing, and I’m truly grateful for all you do, including those behind the scenes who work just as hard (or more!) 🙏🏻💗🙏🏻💗

These guys are truly wonderful helping these beautiful seals. People who throw their trash in the sea are endangering these creatures. Shame On You.

[@LRBerry]

Recent videos have been quite intense rescues. They clearly demonstrate just how committed you are to keeping the seals healthy and free of all these horrible entanglements.

Спасибо вам ребята! 💕как тяжело справиться с таким большим и сильным котиком! Как вы еще заметили этот крючок. Они же близко не подпускают и носятся на такой скорости. А зубы какие! Собака щенок по сравнению с таким укусом. Силища такая, что взрослого человека как куклу отшвырнет на несколько метров. 🥶 Вы герои! Риск неимоверный! Каждый раз переживаю за вас! Здоровья вам! Вы делаете благородное дело! ❤🌷

[@haggielady]

Your technique has evolved over the last 18 months. You've studied what you need to do, how to do it, and it shows. This rescue shows the results of the "brain power" you've put into the art of seal rescue. I'm so proud of all of you, even though we've never met. Keep up the great work!

[@boa1793]

The nets they use to catch the seals are wonderfully designed. I’ve wondered if the nets are designed for something else or this team designed them and have them specially made.

[@rogerrabbit80]

"Everybody get behind, so he runs away from us" Seal: "Wanna bet?"

[@deafahrenbruch1055]

I noticed that, too. He wasn't scared enough to scurry away, more like he was ready to rumble.🤗

He had just been chased, and netted Twice. No wonder he was a bit upset.

[@deafahrenbruch1055]

@@richieb7692 😂 Seriously, I'm really glad they caught him. That horrible cut was probably making him ill-tempered as well as the ignominy of being caught twice by critters that didn't even have decent flippers.

[@marcelm.1941]

Another rescue perfect executed. I wonder how many seal community around the world have similar entanglement problems but no one looking for them. You guys are an inspiration to everyone and I hope you can generate (and occasionally to traine) other people around the globe to try to help these amazing animals and others that also may need help.

[@checkanr138]

time for companies producing fishing lines and plastic that entangles animals to consider using material that dissolves in the water after a while. humans also need to reevaluate how much fish they really need to eat and how much lies they tell about the "need" for animal food on their plate, when scientifically it is already proven that animal foods are not even healthy. the food industry can make more money by converting to plant based food, but the corporate world rather keeps on lying to themselves and push their old outdated eating habits and beliefs upon the world instead of making a positive change.

[@jacktaggart2489]

Great Coordination. Patient emerged as feisty and made whole as ever. Wonderful outcome by your precision team.

[@DylansPen]

The rest of the seals are like, "Oh man they took down Big Jim, I'm getting out of here!" You guys are really getting to be professionals at this now. Worst case scenario - bad entanglements and injuries inside a very large seals mouth and you got it done and everyone knows the risk with a large seal like this is always there. Well done all, that was something to watch.

I'm glad you don't come across many entanglements like this one, but you totally have the strategy down now. It was much easier and faster than the previous rescue you referred to (KZbin video posted on 1 May 2021, "Graphic Seal Rescue--Uncut Version" from July 2020). And this seal was much more cooperative! Well done, guys! Thank you so much for your determination, your persistence, and most of all, your hard work! 🦭👏🙏❤❤❤❤

You guy’s are absolutely wonderful and amazing the job that you do🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@franciscook5819]

Another heart warming rescue. Have you considered using tie down/luggage straps? The ratchet means that they are easier to lock tight, the strap is broader so less likely to damage, the catch has a quick release.

[@giulianacaelli5611]

I like the innovative use of ropes to control these muscley ones. Holding down a 200kg seal is no small task!

This guy was also much more accommodating than Captain Hook was!

[@danielleking262]

I love that Tony just gave him a big ol' shove, like hey, you do what you gotta do if they're not cooperating. I'm sure it didn't even hurt. I just find that hilarious. Like BOOP, down ya go mate! 😆👍

[@nicklager1666]

Poor seals they have a way of finding themselves in the most odd situations. On the other hand it keeps the team on their toes. You guys are turning into veterinarians aswell as removal experts.,

[@nickybritain4900]

I think sea water is a possible antiseptic, a saline solution is good for cleaning a wound. I hope any cut or open injuries on these seals will repair quickly. 👍👍😊

[@UtahDarkHorse]

Beautifully executed! You are all awesome 😎 Thank you so much for everything you do, and God bless.

[@lesliesagara8739]

[@titanbum7365]

Id say they have to be prepared because there are no vetinary resources to turn to nor any medicatation to enthusize them so preparation, strength, speed and determination save the day.

[@WDC_OSA]

The seal must have been so scared, especially when you started putting tools in his mouth. But it’s real good to see him untangled, and I hope he stays healthy.

[@youjustlikeit3774]

6:01 Easy fix for that knot. KZbin video called The Slipped Half Hitch shows that you fold the line in half instead of putting the end of the line through the loop (hitch). It leaves a piece of line hanging out for you to pull on to undo the knot. I use that knot all the time. So do those cowboys that tie the three calf legs together. You can practice on Densil if you can catch him. 😆👍

[@kareyreuben3869]

Thank you for mentioning that and saying it's name, I knew there was a knot you just pull the end but I didn't know the name. I hope the OCN team saw your comment. And yes, Denzil can run like the wind!

[@youjustlikeit3774]

@@kareyreuben3869 Knots can be intimidating. Plus, most of the rescues are from lines with knots so, the optics of adding another knot might put people at unease. But, yes. It is a good safe fast knot. ✌
