Rescuers Reunite With Saved Seal And Her Baby
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- A very special and beautiful encounter for the rescuers from Ocean Conservation Namibia: they spot a seal with an entanglement mark around her neck. As so often, it is hard to tell if there is still any plastic debris left or if it is a scar from an old entanglement wound and the team prefer to have a closer look. They soon find out that they have met this seal before and that she is what we call a "recapture": a previously rescued seal. She stays calm and relaxed as the rescuers approach, she has met them before and she knows that they are not trying to hurt her. Her baby continues to drink, and once they have confirmed that she is in perfect health, leave her along.
It is a proud moment for the OCN team: this mother and baby would not be alive without us. 🦭

I've been waiting for the moment they started to come to you when they need help!!! They are smarter than most people give them credit for and they are learning from you being out there nearly every single day doing nothing but making their lives better. Looks like she brought her baby to show you. Is that the best thanks ever, or what??!!! 🧜🏽♀️💜🦭
I was thinking the same thing too. How nice if an entangled seal walk up to them and say...hey I am stuck, help me
Actually I have seen seals in England and California and I don’t doubt they would come for help. These seals probably have more predators bothering them and are much more aggressive and don’t want any human interaction.
The fact that a momma was super chill with them near her pup says a lot. Mom didn’t even growl at them, it was a yawn. 🥰
@@requiemforameme1 That yawn absolutely cracked me up. Loved this beautiful "behavioral rescue." Fascinating. Great work, people!
@@requiemforameme1 : 👍👏👏👏💕
She does remember you, otherwise her maternal instincts would have kicked in. What a wonderful thing to have witnessed!
Hopefully the puppy will remember too.
Yeah she would have attacked
In the wild, mamma is the first and most trusted teacher. Her experiences can influence generations to come.
Il vaudrait mieux qu'elle se méfie des êtres humains pour sa survie car bien d'autres pourraient la tuer
It's fantastic to see her trusting you enough to come so close to her baby ! 😍
Special!
Aw, she remembers you! Not only did you save her life, but that of her pup and one day, the pup's pups. Y'all have a multi-generational impact. Awesome.
An extra rewarding moment.
Wow, what a special video! She was thinking, "Hey, I know you! Look at my baby!"
A wonderful moment of being able to get so near to a mother seal and her pup and neither of them runs away. This is all you work for to keep them safe and healthy.
The reward for this work so far out weighs the effort! thank you
This must have been so satisfying for you to see, in person, that the work you have done has healed a mama and allowed her to produce a beautiful baby. Congrats'
A treat for sure! 🙏
What a beautiful thing to witness.....how satisfying it must be for you guys to see your efforts were 100% worth it. So many seals have such a bad injury, one wonders if they will survive it even after being freed. Right here is proof they not only recover, but thrive. To the whole OCN team, a big thank you from us all. ❤️
Thank you so much, we really appreciate that. 🙏 🙏 🙏
Such a calm Mom with her adorable baby. You’ve saved both while saving one. ❤️🇨🇦❤️
That what it is to preserve a life, just an extra to treat to witness it. Thank you!
*YOU SAVERD TWO LIVES BY SAVING THE MOM. GOD BLESS !!!*
She knows you will not hurt her or her baby. God bless OCN.❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
🙏
So beautiful to see her so calm around you guys ❤️
A treat for us too!
She is so chilled and you are thrilled to see this Mama seal and her cub thank you to you all
She absolutely trusted you. Beautiful how she remembered you guys.
Thanks again OCN team for all you do. Love Tony's kind words to momma seal.
Thanks for watching!
That was fantastic guys and must be very rewarding for you to see how well she has progressed and now looking after her baby. Well done 👍 thanks 🙏 love you guys ❣️
All the reward we never expect to see, but love! 🙏
The best non-capture ever.
Great to see a previously rescued seal now has a pup.
Fantastic that you can get so close to the animals, and they are calm. Those rare moments that make for memories
Animals are smart. They recall that after their awkward encounter with humans their pain was gone. So they associate humans with care.
Really nice to see her survive and go on to have a pup.
@@gwenreader6631 I gives me hope for the survival of life on earth itself.
We all need hope.
Thank you. Be blessed.
I don't think association works like that. Association occurs between immediate pain and pleasure. I don't know a sense of pain works.
It just shows that seals like lots of other animals have the ability to remember things. It looks like she's had a good experience with you.
All it takes is your smell and your voice to remind them that you're ok to be around.
I'm not sure what a bull would be like, probably grumpy. 😆👍
Could not have worded it better myself haha 🙏
@@BoatsArtsPolitics thank you for the insights you are experiencing.
her pup just learned you are the good guys
Proof positive that the work OCN does has positive results. Momma seal with a previous wound doing well enough to have offspring and living a normal life
I've never seen a wild animal be that comfortable with humans that close to their baby.
Awwww....you saved a future mommy!
She came to show you 'how you helped her, and now she has a kid' she is here to thank you guys.
Fantastic, this is part of the reward for what you guys do, seeing a mother feeding a pup she would never have lived to bring into the world without your help. It isn't that often you get to see this kind of thing but it's extremely memorable even for me, and for you probably more so. Well done OCN!
We don't expect this kind of reward.....but love it! Thanks so much!
@@OceanConservationNamibia you bring us joy too great to not share.
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Such an adorable scene! If it truly is the case that she's so calm because she's met you before, and it does seem most likely, then nothing could be better!!!! Congratulations you guys, what a happy event! ❤❤❤❤
Truly Happy! Thanks 🙏
Really nice to see that she is enjoying her life with her baby with a healthy and fit body 👍👍👍😀😀😀 thankyou all brothers for doing this wonderful work 👍👍👍😀😀❤️❤️
This was so cute. Most wild mothers would have told you to stay away because she needed to take care of her baby. The other adult was also very calm. Keep up the great work. 😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤
This is such a fantastic video because it's proof that the job you at OCN do Is important, it Is saving seal lives and it Is helping to keep the local seal colonies strong and healthy.
Seeing Mum nursing her tiny pup is such a beautiful sight and I'm sure she remembered you from her rescue. Now she can tell her pup that you are the Good Guys and to not be afraid.
👏👏👏
☮️❤️🦘🇦🇺
We like to think so too. 🙏
I loved this! I had hoped you would one day come across another seal you recognized as one you had saved (I remember you saw 'puffy face' later and looking much healed) and that it was doing well. And here she is, seemingly doing very well, healthy and plump and with a beautiful pup. What a great story! Thank you for this.
Our absolute pleasure!
Another seal that remembers the OCN team helped her, and she was not afraid! Very rewarding! Many thanks to OCN team for your countless hours of dedication. ❤️❤️❤️🌊🌊🌊
What your team does is a perfect example of what human stewardship over the Earth means in real time and couldn’t be in more real results. Thanks you for all that you do!
Thank you for caring and supporting us, we would never have made it this far without all the support! 🙏
If all the recaptures are as chill as this mama (and her pup, too!), pretty soon you won't cause a mass stampede when you are after an entangled seal! (Would love to see it happen someday, however unlikely!)🦭💯😊❤️
Unfortunately I think it's better if the seals do run away when there is an attempted rescue. If they get too docile poachers and the like would have a much easier go of it, which we don't want.
@@13vatra You are right. I think it’s much better if animals think that people are not so friendly.
@@13vatra there is a good chance most of the seals distinguish clearly between the crew and others.
Some of the young and the otherwise traumatized may have to learn to do so.
This is different from the usual rescues, and was so sensitively handled............
Precious
Her calm demeanor is a thank you for saving her before💕
I love that Nuade didn't have to net the seal unnecessarily. He is such a professional that he took his time and got the seal to want to show it's belly off to the team. I am always impressed with their compassion and skill.
Thank you 👨💻
It is lovely to see that mother & baby.
So kind of you to check up on her! I love their bleating sounds like sheep and calves. Such a warm sound to my ears. Makes me feel all soft and warm inside knowing she is safe and her baby is thriving. Lovely, lovely, lovely!!!! Thanks to you all!!!
💗💗 Thank You 💗💗
Cute 🥰. "Can you show us your bell". "No, not you, your mommy".
AAAAAAAWWWWW…., I love all you do for these animals! Her baby was so sweet. You gave her a second chance at a full life!😊❤😊❤😊❤
I'm pretty sure one day a entangled Seal will come up to you and ask, "Are you the people with the scissors I've heard so much about?"
Congratulations on the 700,000 - but you deserve a lot more.
Greetings from Germany:
Georg
This is so beautiful.
She must have felt instant relieve when you removed her deathtrap. Now she remembers you and trusts you :)
Mama seal has a beautiful face and baby is adorable.
It's good to see the seals that previously were entangled all healed and thriving. 🙂❤️
Theres a place for you guys in Heaven, that's for sure🙏🙏🙏🙏
wonderful moments when the seals are so confident in your companions. Many thanks for your work
What a beautiful moment with mum and pup! Thank you for sharing it with us! Seeing this must give you great satisfaction. The end result is definitely worth it!🦭😍
I have saved some of your very special videos and this is one of them, along with your Christmas ones. Love this video sun 🌅 is shining, it's a beautiful day. You've helped this seal before and as you said she is chill, she recognized you were not there to hurt her, you helped her before. Wonderful video where you did not have to recapture her, she was laying there calmly with her pups 🦭🦭🦭🦭
She is showing you how you saved her life and her new baby. Great job OCN, and Thank you for all that you do. 👍👍👍👍
Thank you for tour job
Thank you OCN for saving this seal and making it possible for her to have this dear pup!
Thank you! 🙏
This video made me so, so, so happy!!! Amazing and cutest way to start the week!!!
Seal mama definitely recognized you! This reunion serves well the 700K subscribers milestone, sharing with new and old friends the results of your work 🦭🦭💫 thank you OCN 🎊🏆
That was a real pleasure to watch. It is so nice when they thank you in their own way.
It seems as though she recognized you all, and actually did show you her belly! So wonderful
Yes!!!! Thanks so much 🙏
Always been my wish that they remember you helped not harmed (but just you guys). Thanks for taking us along.
Mine too💖💙.
Such a beautiful day! I’m so happy for you to get to see what an impact you make on these seals! She is alive and is now a mommy because of you! God Bless OCN every day! Much love 🦭❤️🙏♻️
She's probably so chill because she remembers you from the first time... when you saved her life!!!
😇😇😇😇😇👍💪💪💪👏👏👏👏👏
Awesome! You guys ROCK! Hugs and God bless! Stevie
It is amazing how invested and dedicated OCN team is.
What a beautiful moment for Naude and Tony So nice to be able to see the fruits of their labor. Loved how mama seal gave a big yawn as if to say “Come on guys it’s almost bedtime “
The fruits of your labour are on every beach there wouldn’t even be half the seals if it wasn’t for you guys
Really love you guys. I too believe the seals are smart enough to know youre the good guys no matter how traumatic being netted may be!
Thanks! We like to think so too.🙏
It's lovely to see that the mum was so chilled with you and knows what you did for her :-)! Beautiful sunset!
It was magical!
Better safe than sorry. Always good to double and triple check
You are very lucky to be so closed. A true pleasure to see that animals know it. And a great pleasure to share that with all of you, even it is in video.
What an honor! Love it! Thank you
This is why you guys do what you do. And this is why we love watching you guys do what you do. You're Heroes to us and the sea life. Thank you.
Lovely scene, OCN gave peace to a happy family
You guys are truly amazing, my god be with you and all these beautiful creatures.
Thank you so much my heroes for saving their lives ❤️ greetings to all 😊🙋🏻
I almost started to cry at the way the mother trusted yal ,and the way she lifted up just enough to show yal she was free of any entanglement❕❕
Maybe eventually they will all realize yal are out there to help them❗❗
I'v said it in so many ways, and I will keep on saying it, OCN 😇YOU ARE THE BEST THING THESE SEALS❤ HAS GOING FOR THEM👍 SO STAY SAFE AND GOD BLESS.🙏🙏
WE SUBS LOVE YOU❤
Awesome - trusting Mama!
It's so beautiful to see the pup suckling, l just wish it was in happier circumstances and you were filming to see if there was another entanglement. She remembered you guys as the ones who saved her before. ❤️🙏😁🇬🇧
That is so amazing to be able to see them fully healed and a mama living her best life. All thanks to the OCN crew!! 💜💜💜
That's really nice to see that she and her pup are thriving.
So wonderful to see a old rescue feeding her pup. A baby she wouldn't have if not for the efforts of your team.
It is the moments like these..it makes it all worth while..you have definitely left an "imprint" on her for life..she knows she is in safe hands..you guys are super!
This is a big step. Some seals starting to get your work for them. Bless these lovely mother. Yeah OCN.
So agree what you say Naude, she would have been really upset, with her baby in tow. You know what us Mothers are like if we feel our babies are being threatened. So lovely for you to see all your efforts are worth every drop of sweat, a sight to behold! Lots of ❤️
Such a rewarding experience, thank you.
Good to see the mother is doing great and she's nursing her pup. Just wanting to make a quick check on you momma seal, and you're doing great 👍👍
Beautiful moment ❤ What better proof is needed to see what a difference you make in the lives of these seals! Incredible guys!
Спасибо за картинки из жизни морских котиков!!)
Отлично, что этой мамочке уже ранее помогли!!!)
Не боится, не убегает, действительно помнит!)
Сколько спасённых жизней!! Молодцы!!!)
How wonderful to know that mom is alive and thriving after such a devastating entanglement! Every life saved is such a BIG win. 🏆🏆🏆 It was so heartwarming to see her let the rescuers get up thisclose! Thank you for checking to make sure she didn't have an entanglement! Finding an almost invisible line, like yesterday, are my favorite rescues! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❣❣❣
That’s wonderful! She had no fear of you. Your work is certainly rewarding you (and us) with moments to remember. 💗💗
Such a different video and so so so happy to be able to witness this, thanks to you, guys....Thank you so much for all you do for our World and to share it with us. All the best to you
Interesting that she was not defensive. I think more animals have better memories than humans care to believe.
You helped her, quite possibly she remembered, at least that you did her no harm.
Way to go guys!! A success
Thanks!
Amazed how the mama seal understood & lifted her chest so Naude could get a closer look. Seals are remarkably smart & could sense your compassion. Way to go OCN TEAM!! ✨🦭✨💛🌍♻️
🐬🌴🌞 *He Lā Maika’i Loa* _Have A Great Day_
Such a wonderful and special encounter. Thanks so much 🙏
Beautiful moment... Congratulations team...
What a sweet reunion. thanks to your former rescue she has a baby and will have much more in the future. Great behaviour from her part to recognize you. absolutely made my day. congrats to 700k subs.
She knew who they were no worries she also knew they wouldnt hurt her thats a very cool thing. Its just great people doing great work and even the Seal could tell that. Amazing.
Wonderful reunion! Tags would be great for this.
Omg .omg this is it. This is the reward for all the hard intense work my bros .what an amazing encounter. I cant even still imagine the feelings. You all are amazing thank you so much NYC one .❤
Wow!! Just perfect to see they definitely have an idea of why you are here and that it's to help them. How awesome. Your presence is definitely known and that is completely from your dedication and hard work. God bless OCN CREW... 💞
Thank you Linda! 🙏
This was so beautiful to see 😍and also a reminder that when you save one life, the impact goes far into the future when they can reproduce after healing. So incredible that she trusted you so much that she was willing to allow her baby around you as well! Love it! ✌🏼💜🇨🇦
