Two Baby Seals Joined Together By Fishing Line And Hook

These two seals must have been in indescribable pain. They were not only wrapped up in the same piece of fishing line, one of them also had a fishing hook pierced through his mouth. No matter how hard they tried to shake it off or break away from each other, every movement would have hurt themselves and each other even more. Every movement would have tightened the fishing line around their necks even more until their untimely passing. They are seals, they are not able to coordinate their movements and their shared entanglement would have hindered them from finding their mothers. The OCN rescuers Wally, Kat and Antoine got to them just on time and they watch the two seals jump back into the ocean - alive and rescued. 🦭

It’s a curse because it makes them severely harm each other. It’s a blessing because they were easier to catch that way. It sucks. But the both of them got incredibly lucky.

I always love how each of you talks gently and compassionately to the seals. Naude's "it's okay, it's okay" , Tony's "go puppy go go go!", Wally's " oh, what a shame". Kat & Denzil's quiet, ready assistance. You all show compassion in different ways and I think that's what keeps people watching.

Puppy #2 was a good patient and thankfully that hook had no barb and was easily removed. Great tactics and OCN are using the water to your advantage a bit more now when necessary. It's lovely to see Kat involved, literally hands on, in the rescue of Puppy #2. Thank you Wally, Tony and Kat. ☮️❤🦘🇦🇺

Tony talks so sweetly to these pups! Bet he’s a great father too! As are you all! Caring and compassionate is what it takes to do this every day. Glad that big hook is out of the baby. Great work guys!! ❤️❤️

[@Betsy-R]

I love the way Tony talks to these “puppies!” I love how he says “you don’t need this anymore.” Love watching the beautiful work these guys do!

[@eponack]

His sand side manner is my favorite, too. Why does it seem he’s the most likely to get bit? I think it’s because he throws himself into every rescue completely and puts the animals before himself.

[@nailed_by_lore]

Is Tony a father? I thought they had said he wasn't, I remember they said Denzel is a new father of a little boy (I think) just a few months old now, and I don't think Wally is a father either. I could be wrong about Tony and Wally, but I'm pretty sure I heard them say Tony isn't a father; it was in their Q&A from November of last year. But about Wally, I can't recall what was said. Anyways, kids or no kids, Tony is amazing when it comes to talking to the pups and the older seals. I love hearing him talk to the pups; it's so calming, soothing, and just so sweet. He's such a great man, well-spoken, well-mannered, seems like a genuine person/friend from what I see in the videos. Whoever is or becomes his lifetime partner is or will be a very lucky individual. I'm jelly, lol . Jk. Anyways, much love from Chicago, IL. (USA) Stay safe and healthy everyone. 🙏 💕 Xoxo
