Seal's Head Covered In Gill Net
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 04. 2022
- Gill net entanglements should not happen in Namibia because this particular type of net is illegal. Many countries have banned gill net due to the high amounts of by-catch like this seal. Once entangled in a gill net, the animal has no chance to ever get out of it again. It can no longer move or eat properly and will eventually find a very sad end. We do not know if a gill net broke loose somewhere or if the responsible fishermen dumped a piece of gill net over board because it is easier than discarding it properly - but we do know that this seal had very little time left.
The fishing industry is highly unregulated and even existing laws are often poorly if at all enforced. This piece of illegal net found in Namibian waters is the proof. 🦭

I love how he talks to the seal.
"Where did you find the net, it's illegal. Do you know it's illegal" 😅
Благодаря вашему комментарию, я поняла, что он говорит тюленям) Спасибо Вам 🌷
That’s exactly the part that should have been cut out. I hate it when people talk like that to animals. 😂
@@dubart67 lol why? That’s an odd thing to hate
@@dubart67 He was joking lol
Your team are incredible fantastic humans
One of my favorite parts of these videos is hearing how calmly and affectionately Antoine speaks to the seals during the rescues.
"I am sorry it took so long" as the seal walked away melted my heart 😄

That was so sweet the way she just sauntered off knowing you helped her. Thankful and exhausted.
Your persistence in completely removing the entanglement is wonderful. The seals may not understand, but they are better for all your efforts. All you need now is for them to figure out you are helping them and be waiting in line for you to get there!
hahaha.... that is exactly what wrote too somewhere on this channel.... i hope they get to know you and line up for future consultation hours. :D
The problem with that is the seals can’t differentiate between these guys wanting to help and the seal cullers coming to club them to death.
I have to tell you guys something. Out of all the heinous crap and garbage on the internet, What you guys do and what you post is like a breath of fresh air and sunshine. No stupid sales pitch. No whining and slobbering about your sad life story or political crap. No violence or negative vibe.
Just great guys and girls doing great things because its the great thing to do. Thank god for you guys.
Yeah!!!! My thought exactly. Kindness, fresh air in every way. You’re the future of the world. ❤️
Couldn't have said it better myself. You guys also show what real teamwork is. Congratulations! And thank you on behalf of all the seals 🦭 you save 😀
Потому что они Человеки!
Wow so last years post…
I’m kidding it warmed my heart when u said that and nothing ever does that cuz this world is just to cold -_-
Hear, hear!
I love how Tonie is so calm and kind to all the seals especially the pups. All of the team are special.
Thank you so much
🌹
Incredibly special, every one of them!
He says "puppy" with such care.
Even the jackals get a “have a good weekend”. Really an animal lover.
These men have saved a lot of seals lives. Thank you so much
The baby talk with the seal while you guys were resting in between 😂 I can feel your hearts for them. Thank you for what you guys are doing for these seals! It’s so amazing ❤
❤
That's very generous of you and much appreciated ShowHeon❤❤
Agree completely. 😂😊
Tony and Denzil, kudos to you for a successful rescue under extremely difficult conditions, lacking 2 team members being the main one.👍👏
When Antoine talks to the seals it makes my heart melt ❤️ So cute !! "It's ok, it's ok, Papi, you gonna be ok."
I think he needs to talk to the fishermen there and show them the damage they cause right?
Sadly, for every few that care, there will be at least one that doesn't.
Also, equipment breaks and nets and lines get lost. It's honestly such a shame, to stop a lot of the issues fishing would need to be banned completely.
Understandably there are issues with that and the problem isn't going away any time soon. Best we can do is keep raising the awareness and encourage them to be more proactive recovering lost nets and so forth
@@Nolascana your so right when I first seen these videos first thought was wonder how many of them get stuck on the bottom and drown cause of fishing line alone and other sea life too like Orcas that feed on seals etc. If they could used biodegradable fishing lines and specially nets spider wire degrades at least faster than mono line watching these good men saving this species makes me think how can manufacturing of these materials be more environmentally friendly????
Thank you guys for the wonderful work you do rescuing those poor seals at considerable risks of bites to yourselves! God bless you all, all our thanks and gratitude from Liverpool UK
Огромная БЛАГОДАРНОСТЬ за вашу человечность и работу по спасению животных 💞💯🙏🙏🙏💯🤗🤗🤗💯🦭🦭🦭🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺💗
Спасибо, спасибо вам ребята! Вы герои нашего времени! Пусть планета Земля гордится своими спасателями!!!❤❤❤
I have tears in my eyes watching this, especially at the end when the seal walks away and one of the rescuers says, ‘ sorry it took so long’. Please don’t ever apologise, you’re all superheroes.
Same that hit really hard. These guys are amazing people
The team sport with the most winning ways in the world.
Wonderful job these guys do. Watch every day
Y’all are my heroes and I hope you make millions of dollars with this CZcams channel, you deserve it
I am shocked at how few Patreon supporters they have. People who make reaction videos have thousands, and OCN has 550. I hope people are at least letting the ads run for 30 seconds so they can make a little from that.
This is not the goal, but thanks! It certainly helps us to be there full time, therefore it does help the seals.
@@eld2310 I am shocked at how long it is taking for them to reach 700K subscribers! They hit 600K on 29 June 2021. I thought they'd have a million by now!
@@OceanConservationNamibia ustedes tienen un corazón grande y generoso ❣️gracias por su labor
Naude and the OCN Team - we all LOVE what you do and are amazed at your incredible commitment and unwavering dedication toward rescuing these seals! I would love to be part of your team but I know I would just slow you down! ☺️ Keep it up, continue to amaze and thrill us all saving these poor seals - victims of human negligence, cruelty and pure laziness. All they had to do is throw the discarded nets, fishing line, etc., into a garbage bag and put it into a garbage can back on land. Pathetic and saddening. Your team is a breath of fresh air and bright light, saving these amazing creatures. Thank you from the bottom, top and entirety of my heart!!!
❤🥰❤️
Por favor, si não for incomodo dizer o nome de cada um obg
Дорогие OCN , я восхищаюсь вашим профессинализмом, настойчивостью , смелостью и огромным желанием спасать морских котиков ! Вы ангелы для этих животных! Спасибо вам за ваш труд и за спасение каждого тюленя. ❤❤❤

When I read the title, I thought, "Damn, it's been a while since I've seen them deal with a gill net." Then I saw the length of the video and remembered just how nasty they are.
There's an amazing display of patience and dedication in this video. Thank you for being there for her and plucking away every little strand in that monstrosity. I hope nobody on the team has to deal with an entanglement like this for a while now.
We can all hope. Thank you 🙏
Oh my goodness, Tony and Denzil you've outdone yourselves with this rescue. The amount of effort you both put in to relieving this seal of that bloody gill net is huge and I'm not surprised you were all tired afterwards.
It's no wonder the seal was aggravated in the beginning, she couldn't open her mouth, the net was over her eyes, and she was stressed out. She put up a good fight but the relief when the muzzle line was cut was amazing. She could breathe properly.
Thank you both so much. I hope you have a great weekend.
PS: This was The Day of the Jackal.
☮️❤️🦘🇦🇺
Love he was talking to the seal saying where did you find this net. It’s illegal. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I love how they talk to the seals esp tony. He loves seals you can hear in his voice.
UNBELIEVABLE RESCUE!! Denzel and Tony are Amazing!!! Together , they are quite the team!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏✂️✂️✂️✂️🦭🦭🦭😘😘💥💥💫💫
Tony’s running Commentary just makes the day!!
Many Blessings to our Fearless OCN TEAM!!💥⚡️✨
The day of the jackal!!! Hahaha that's funny....well, yeah, they dared...but couldn't get away with much...just as well!!
You are such devoted men to help these vulnerable, precious animals!! Thank you so much! 😊
You two are amazing! Exhausted and dealing with a powerful, strong seal, and you never gave up, and saved her life! You are heroes.
Saying sorry to the seal for how long it took, you guys are amazing 💙
Thank you for your perseverance in freeing this poor, unfortunate seal.
Anytime!
These men are so empathetic. So kind and so good at what they do. Thank you!
I love you guys for caring enough to rescue one of God's beautiful sea creatures! I can tell you care by the way to talk to them! Bravo to the two of you! I know the seals are grateful in their own way too!
The pup is so small, I just can't imagine how his life would be if you guys didn't free him from his entanglement.
Short.
@@yaimamartinez9576 unfortunately that would have been true. But now he has a great chance of a full and long life. Thanks team OCN great job as always 👍 👏
It’s people like you who make me not lose hope for humanity. The work your group does is amazing 👍🏽
"hope for humanity" is in Jesus Christ, not some youtuber. the ending is already known, humanity loses.
@@xincarceratedx man shut up 🤦🏽♂️ nobody asked about your religious views. People like you are the reason I lose faith in humanity. These guys spend there lives saving animals that are suffering and you want to make it about your religion.
Truly. Of late I sometimes am almost ashamed to be part of the human race in it has been showing it's ugly side.
Then here are these heros, breathless from running, shivering wet, doing this selfless service to our fellow earthlings.
Vcs são maravilhosos...se eu pudesse iria aí ajudar bjs obrigada pela consideração de ter lido meu elogio a todos.
@@xincarceratedx why isn't you Jesus helping anywhere. These men and women do make a difference...

Mil gracias por ayudar a esos animalitos.
What an amazing job you two did. God bless you both for helping seals. I pray for your entire team members to stay safe. Thank you so much.
You two guys did a fabulous job on these rescues. That little pup was so adorable, but the thought of that strong, healthy seal being reduced to a slow, horrible death because of that gill net was sickening. Thank you both for all your effort and sweat that went into helping these two seals. The gill net seal looked as exhausted as you at the end, and despite your fatigue, the jackals still wanted to see if you had a sandwich in the vehicle for them. Hah! Thank you guys. This rescue has reminded me that I'm overdue on my donation, so I'll go and net my credit card and wrestle with it now.
Thank you so much for the continued support and encouragement. 🙏
@@OceanConservationNamibia heyo, just wondering… if I donate money will it directly towards you and supporting your supporting mission to help the seals? I would love to help you guys out and I don’t want the money to be siphoned off only to have you guys get 5% of what I sent. You know what I mean… thanks heaps, keep doing this
Jackal exploits distraction of a seal rescue operation to steal hero's shorts. Well, they say no good deed goes unpunished. Amazing rescue. Thank you for all you do.

Боже мой! Какой труд! Огромное вам спасибо!💗
Let's honour Nobel Prize !!!!!!
In a world with so many selfish uncaring people, it really lifts my spirits to see such wonderful caring individuals as yourselves!
It was actually pretty funny how slowly the strong girl fled the net. Everyone was exhausted by the ordeal. Thank you so much, team, for your work
What you are doing is great and life saving for the seals. Thank you for being so engaged and helping the poor animals....

I love how you all talk to all the seals. Hopefully they understand what you are doing
Thank you. It very often seems to have a calming effect.
On a rescue day to just be the two of you,it is amazing to watch you get the job done Persistence pays off! Sashaying off instead of running seemed like the reaction of "I'm free" by the seal. Looked like a little pup was looking for her in background too Now she can feed Great rescue Antoine and Denzil!! Thank you OCN 😊
Cara eu fico feliz em ver pessoas boas em um mundo mal, parabéns pelo trabalho de vocês. Continuem
I don't believe I've seen you guys struggle so much for so long on such a strong seal. I thank you with all my heart! I know it was incredibly difficult but when you were finally able to release her, I felt her relief as much as yours. I have no doubt she was grateful!! Thank you OCN!
Absolutely 💯 agree. Thank you 😊 🦭🦭🦭🌊
My Gosh!!!! The last one was really exhausting!!! I think it's the first time I have ever seen a seal so tired after being rescued. Antoine, The Flash you outdid yourselves this time!!! Antoine, once again, thank you for your sweetness and humour! Be safe and be well!!!!
I admire your dedication and perseverance. I doubt that seal would ever have gotten out of that if you two hadn't refused to give up on rescuing her! =D
That was the most difficult rescue I have seen you do so far. Well done!!❤
I just love the way Tony talks to the seals. It melts my heart every time ❤️
The hardest kind of rescue with only Tony and Denzil. You two are heroes. The seal can't thank you so we will thank you for her. THANK YOU!
I argee, we will THANK YOU!🦭🦭🌊.
Yes totally! Thank you 😊 🦭🦭🦭🌊💖
Fanastic rescue! Loved your conversation with the seal :) I'm sure the calm words calmed the seal some, they can read us more than we know.
Какие прекрасные дела, люди, доброта и любовь спасёт мир. Как же вы мило с ними разговариваете. Никакой злобы и агрессии даже на тех, кто что-то стащил, ещё и поблагодарили. Удивительно приятные ребята.
Wow! everyone needs a break after that rescue, including the seal. Well done, but boy this was a tough one. Much love and respects as always.
The seal was probably weak from not being able to feed. Now she has a chance to recover.
@@nomebear Plus fighting these crazy two-legs for quite a while.

We don’t deserve the earth we’ve been given. Heartbreaking. You guys are heroes.
I have watched every single video that OCN has posted on CZcams, and this one tops them all. The best! Antoine's narration really conveys how connected he is to the animals -- even the jackals. I look forward to seeing a new video every morning. Thank you so much for all your good energy.
Riiiiight.... he needs to narrate a Seal Rescuing Children's Book 💯❣💪✌😇
You can tell he loves animals so much. A great wonderful man.
I agree with you 100%. This was amazing! So glad you guys do what you do.
Thank you so much for saving all these beautiful animals. Just found your channel, I’m crying tear of gratitude for you all 🥹❤️🇦🇺
Awesome rescues God Bless them heroes in my eyes grateful & thank you
Oh that poor little chap, it was as though he was wrapped like an Egyptian Mummy, the happiness he would've felt from being freed would've been monumental.
You guys do so much good for these critters.
You guys are unbelievable. Your compassion, dedication and hard work literally saves the lives of these magnificent creatures. You deserve all the respect and admiration all of us viewers can have for your efforts.
They can only do what they do with donations from us as the government doesn’t help them!
Thank you so much ❤
Thank you for sticking with it no matter how difficult the situation. Your work means everything.
The fact that in the end the rescuer is saying " im so sorry, im sorry i took so long" really had me emotional
You guys deserve all the success in the world. Thanks for caring about these awesome animals.
I just love what these guys do; paying it forward; relieving the suffering of these seals; prolonging and saving their lives. Great job, guys.👍 🌟 🤩
👍👍👍
if possible, maybe you could show your appreciate with their work with a super thanks of a buck. These guys are miracle workers.
And what a massive colony talk about driving kudos to the guys I love them too
Thriving
True heroes 🥰🥰🥰

О,как вы работаете ловко...это бесценный опыт...спасибо вам!❤
Oh the poor seal...almost as exhausted as her rescuers from the whole ordeal. I don't think I've ever seen a seal walk away from a rescue like that...😔
Yeah I'd call that match a draw, everyone had to tap out including the seal.
I agree Linda, this was a tough battle for the guys, and they did a super job working together.
Yes
Thank God for those heavy duty scissors
That strong seal tiring out was most likely the best thing that could have happened. It made him less resistant and reduced the danger for the boys, and himself. I can imagine if he were still thrashing about, those cuts near his eyes could have been bad for both sides. Good on you guys. That was a tough one for just 2 of you. Bravo!
That last line around her snout...I feel faint when I think of the pain and suffering she endured. 🦭😔 Thank you so much Tony and Denzil for freeing her.😇🙏
I'm a year late for this party, but I am so glad for the wonderful work you are doing. None of this seals you have helped would have been able to live much with those nets and fishing lines and everything else you have freed them from. 😊
Antoine is so sweet as he talks to and cares for “the babies”
Love how you talk to the seals, keep it up! You both are doing a good thing
Denzil, Tony.. You absolute ruddy legends! First puppy was soo tiny, totally unafraid, I'm positive your soothing tones speaking to her/him played a big part in that. Second puppy, she must have been terrified with so much net blinding her, strangling her, gagging her..hopefully now after a rest she'll be able to hunt and fill her tummy with fishes.. Tony's talk to her about Gill net being illegal and where did she get it..priceless..police officers couldn't have asked her better. May karma bite those still manufacturing and/or using that ruddy Gill net.. Keep safe guys, u r the best xx 💜🇬🇧💜
Absolutely 💯 agree with you 👏 👍 👌
💯. You Speak the truth.
Даже не представляют ребята как животные им благодарны ❤❤❤❤ спасибо огромное за помощь животным ❤❤❤
Thank you guys for loving these animals as much as you do. You are real heros. The one thing that reassures me is that most are still strong and have a
fighting spirit.
I have watched this video now two times
And I am even more amazed at the dedication and physical & mental strength of these two men
They are amazing, despite being tired from holding her down and their hands cramping, still they continue to work to free the seal from this big entanglement
And he keeps apologizing to the seal for taking so long to finish removing the net
They are true caring heroes for these seals.
❤❤❤❤❤.
The apology as the seal walked away was the sweetest thing ❤
You guys work so hard. I can see the passion you have for these poor seals. Thank you so much for the work that you do. I love how Antone talks to the seals. I watch you guys every day
These guys are enhancing their souls. No greater reward than this. I truly thank you.
Love the narration...helps us to understand what you are doing and seeing...and also entertains us. Maybe even creates a bond with the seal.🦭👏
🙏
Have to admit that the narrative was a great part of this incredibly hard rescue. The seals 🦭 seem to understand especially when it takes so long. That poor seal was as exhausted as you guys were. The jackals thought they'd add some fun to your hard day, glad your shorts survived lol 😆
The way these guys are as caring of each other as they are of their patients, how Antoine talks to the 'poopies', these rescues are the best...well done, everyone. Much respect. From Australia.
Its puppies. Like seal pups. They also call them sea dogs.
@@JennySieck the commentor above was quoting the way in which Antoine says the word, not that that is the correct spelling
Even then, spelling is subjective to accent and dialect, so giving unsolicited "corrections" online isn't entirely necessary /nm
This was additional information. Nothing wrong with that....
@@JennySieck there's nothing wrong with additional information, however, the tone put across in the first reply could be interpretated as that of somewhat condescending correction, rather than simply adding content /nm
I understand if that wasn't the intention, but the writing style gave at the very least a different impression
I'm unsure if you know of them, but tone indicators (TIs) are becoming increasingly more common in online discourse to help eliminate areas of ambiguity
For example, in both of my replies I've used /nm, which stands for "not mad", so the reader knows that even if the tone of my writing may come across as mad or irritated, that isn't the intended case
They're a very helpful and inclusive tool!
From Brooklyn New York.... with all the love in the world..
Ребята красавчики!!!! Спасибо вам большое! 😊
You guys are inspiring. I have great respect and grattitude for what you are doing. There is no effort of greater importance.
Good lord! You guys are heroes! This was the most difficult one I’ve ever seen you confronted with. I am tired just watching you two…and the seal, too. She didn’t even have the energy to run away at last. And then…just what you needed…a jackal!! 🤦🏻♀️ I always find it so touching when I hear you try to reason with a seal, even though you know the seals have no idea you are trying to help them. Bless all of you for doing this work. 🙏
That was intense! You did an amazing job with just the two of you.
Thanks so much
Храни Вас Господь! Здоровья, мира, добра!
This poor girl….that you took so much time and effort is a blessing to her….thank you.
The Seals may not like it when they're caught and messed with, but these gentleman really are just helping them, and I'm sure they realize it after whatever problem is fixed.
We can blame the trauma the seals go through as they get the nets off, on the careless and heartless people leaving the nets out there. Those stupid illegal nets kill many types of ocean life. SMH. Words cannot convey how I feel about these Heroes who go through h*ll to get it off of them. Many thanks guys!
there was one video i saw bit of a long time ago on this channel of a seal rescue video where the seal actually stayed with it's rescuers for a bit and let the rescuers pet him before he went back to his group, so they definitely do realize it after the fact, i'm guessing most of them are just too scared in that moment to think about anything other than the worst case scenario
@@horizont6883 there is a chance that an occasional seal has previously had prolonged contact with people.
Some rescues have veterinary rehab included, at least in the states.
They are released back into the wild when deemed ready, usually joyful to leave people, but less than totally wild. They may not seek people out, but may pause to ponder events knowing not all.of us are foes.
@@horizont6883 what I tend to worry about in cases of apparent clinging is that a seal might be hungry and anxious about survival. .
The sad truth is that, for our safety and theirs, it's best that they are scared of people
So sad that these seal have to endure this because of illegal forms of fishing. It's so great that your team is ready & willing to save these poor creatures at great cost to yourselves! Thank you for all you do to help them have a better life!
Somebody taking matters into their own hands. Refreshing, and satisfying to watch. Thank you for doing what you do
Those seals are marathon runners and you guys match them in an effort to rescue them. Such heart.
I love the way Tony talks to the little ones. And this gill net removal would have been difficult even if you had had the full team. Great work you two!
Wow! I didn’t realize how embedded the net was in her face. So sad! Kudos to you for your compassion and hard work!
Love the talking and petting they do with the seals. You are wonderful people.
The little one had it’s rear end stuck in go motion. Didn’t stop trying to hop forward during the rescue. Thank you team OCN for saving it from the entanglement ❤
Shout out to the editor of these vids. It's sped up and slowed down in the right sections, continuity is attended to while maintaining build-up, engagement and fulfilment/conclusion. The sub-title explanations are also appreciated. It's quality work done a daily basis - well done!
the beep sound was way too loud
All three of them were exhausted! The seal was so tired from fighting her rescuers that she could barely waddle away. Thanks Tony and Denzil for sticking with such a tedious rescue. OCN is such a dedicated crew. ❤️
Thank God you sweet hearted men take the time to care for these small creatures! I want to thank you so much for
She has got to feel better with every strand you cut off of her head and body. I hope people understand the harm they cause to all animals when they use the illegal gear.
By far the most harrowing and surely the most rewarding rescue ever!! Do you know, Antoine and Denzil, the seals have the most amazing seal discussions and man-stories at both their weekly meetings as well as their story-telling festivals ,and bedtime sries for those furry pups every night, all about you! About your bravery and the fun conversations you have with them. God bless you, and those lovely seals.
Well Done
I am holding my breath just watching this video!!!! Thank you so much for your care & love!!!!! Thank you!!!!
It fills me with great joy and admiration to witness the selfless dedication of individuals who generously offer their time and effort to rescue seals that have unintentionally become entangled in fishing lines and other discarded human objects. These innocent creatures, through no fault of their own, find themselves in perilous situations that could potentially lead to an untimely demise. However, thanks to the unwavering commitment of individuals like you and your team, these seals are given a second chance at life. Your exceptional work is truly commendable, and I sincerely hope that your efforts continue to shine as a beacon of hope for these magnificent creatures.
We are unfortunately not solving the problem, but only treating the symptoms of the plastic crisis with our rescues. The goal of these videos is to show the consequences of this pollution and create a change to tackle its roots - namely our addiction to single-use plastics, the lack of law enforcement at sea, and the shortcomings of the recycling industry.
This was intense 🫣!! I felt like I was on the edge of my seat the entire time watching this 🥺. Thankful the pup was saved 🥰!
BRAVO 🙌🏽 to you Ocean/Beach SuperHEROES💪🏽💪🏿 for yet another great adventure saving our seals while aiding in conserving our oceans!
Much Luv from 🇨🇦
Thank you so much for your efforts. I have found so much joy and a few tears watching OCNs wonderful teamwork.. OCN is a stellar group.
