Gotta love Tony. His gentleness, compassion, and soft tones when talking to the seals. OCN has some really great people on their team. Thank you for all you do. Much love and respect always.

I see how gentle and compassionate these people work with these seals, and it only makes me think, that their wife/husbands and children must love them to death. 💕 Such a great way to make people acknowledge what is truly going on with our environment. By choosing to teach us by filming this. It takes a long to process this and put it on KZbin on top of them working hard all day. Thank you all for your hard works. 💕

[@anncollins8190]

High five to Tony for freeing this precious seal of that horrible entangled fishing line by himself! Tony, you are so compassionate towards these babies and I love how you talk to them and try to comfort them knowing they are in extreme pain. You guys are heroes! God’s blessings to all of you!

[@nickywhite9079]

Thank you for all your kindness to these beautiful creatures. I live in New Zealand on the West Coast of the South Island. Our beaches are wild & we have seals & penguins too. I wouldn't have the strength or the training to do what your team does so well. Instead the beach is just around the corner from home, so I go around regularly & remove any plastics, fishing line & net bits off beach. My challenge to everyone watching is!........ Make a difference pick up rubbish from any where, dont let it get into water ways . After all we all use plastics so are all responsible to what happens to our rubbish 😊 PLEASE HELP & YOU 2 CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 😇

[@rubyd3745]

I believe that easy soothing talk helps the animals to understand what is happening. It certainly made this one cooperate. Thank you for showing it go into the water and Thank you for your work with these animals.
