Once they are born, harp seal pups have only 10 days under their mother's care before they are abandoned. What are your thoughts on this race against time?
Scary! but they can do it. You may in a bad situation but there will always be help. There are chances of failing but you're put there so it means there's a chance to win. Prayer is a choice too. Don't know about you tho it's up to you. Peace (:
The phocids like harp seals and elephants seals have an incredible history's life, the milk of these animals is a world of molecular components that permit the pup's existence
National Geographic It breaks my heart to see these babies abandoned at such an early age. Forced to survive or die. The under water filming is spectacular.

“How incredible must it be to realize you are actually built for the very medium that was so daunting just minutes ago.” the reason why nat geo has been my fave channel from childhood up until now 🥺💛
A scientist is a more than just an intelligent or educated person. They're the adults who managed to keep the sense of wonder and imagination of children alive through puberty. This is why all great scientists are weird, they are children that survived.
Honestly I give it to National Geographic for not only educating the world about important topics, but also to make sure that the content is entertaining and easy to understand. Without Bertie Gregory not only giving us beautiful filming but his narration is absolutely top tier. You can see how much he loves his job and it makes this series a thousand times better.
And sadly, the truth is that I just looked up, and I found out that 1/3 of the pups couldn't make it for even a year or two, let alone full adulthood ;(
This was one of those anime mom's who where running from the bad guys (polorbears) to lure them Away for the baby and rescue people are the old guy who finds the baby
It's even a bit sad to realize this is last episode of this Big Freeze series. Anyone who is suspicious about global warming should see this one. Amazingly well done and heart warming. Bertie and the production team behind, you guys are awesome!
"Now that the mother knows her pup has the skills to survive the ice breakup, it's time for the hardest lesson of all; saying goodbye" I only cried for 7 hours.
I respect Bertie. His last commentary was meaningful, and insightful. Not only he educate me about harp seals, but also open people’s eyes about climate change and we all play an important role in saving it.
so she chased the other seals away from her pup furiously, but the pup is literally hugging the cameraman and yet she's like '' aight whatever he's human he'll pay child support at least''. and then he literally doesnt get attacked by a pack of wolves who live in a harsh climate with little food. is he an animal diplomat or something?
I love how they dont see human as much of a threat compare to others... they always keep their distance, but they never like flee when they see a human
Bertie Gregory (the host) needs more recognition. He's hilarious in some parts and insightful on others! Had to give a thumbs up to this video cause of him
@@Jules279 all depends on the animal, but very true that any animal that cares for its young for a prolonged amount of time like this definitely has feelings at least, and these seals look pretty smart from the curiosity from the baby and teaching ability from the mom
@@Anetusn we just opened up drilling in the artic and the Tongass. Plus burning petroleum like we are is creating a green house effect that melts the ice these guys need. It's like a pincer attack and many innocent creatures will go extinct.

I don't want to be that dad in 30 years who has to explain to his kids what an extinct polar bear looked like. Honestly its a shame that people don't think this is a thing or that global warming will affect them.
Sorry to speak blasphemy against the cult of climate change, but I just looked it up and the current population of polar bears is at 30,000. That is a 50 year high from when they were put on the ESL. I think that your kids will see a polar bear in their lifetime.
@@harleyquinn5774 anything greater than...you know... EXTINCTION should be a victory. This is why you guys are a cult. Even when there is an improvement you are all still doom and gloom. You all just move on to the next monster to cower from.
We also need to think more. Lets say you fund more on saving arctic animals but set aside the economy, which in turn you'll lose your own money income. Saving mother earth and economy should be balanced because if one of them lacks, your effort is useless.
Forcing people to learn about the environment wont help them to realize we need to act to keep it, it only makes them care less about it when you force a bunch of packets and tests on it with the only motivation being the fear of failure and therefore not passing.
@It’s a Bunnay It might have to do with the base structure of our primitive economic system. We've got a system that encourages/rewards greed and our best hope under it is to expect everyone with economic power to stop acting greedily "because it's the right thing" even though it was their greed that gave them the wealth and power and they know that if they slow down they will be replaced by someone greedier. We need to replace capitalism.
How beautiful! Made me want to cry seeing the mom leave her beautiful pup. And like you say there is so much more than saving them. It's our planet we need to do something about. So glad something is being done. Really nothing is impossible. Even the word says it, I'm-Possible.

Well in my place we regularly do tree plantings, we recycle our household waste like plastics etc., I drive less and usually prefer riding a bike or just walk, and I turn of my electronic devices when I'm not using it. Its simple things but I believe by doing it I am helping these animals as global warming contributes to the harp seal's race against time issue, Now imagine if most of of us or maybe all of us will do the simple things that you know could stop global warming, wouldnt it be a better world for us and these lovely creatures?
You do have a valid point sir, yeah you're right Im too young, 22 btw. But thank you for your insights and I will do some research about what you've brought up. I appreciate the time you've given me.
@@ellisonmangubat4376 Unfortunately we've reached a point where doing little things isn't enough any more. People need to start doing big things. Every problem on the planet is caused directly by us...the consumer. Everything you want and desire is provided for you by corporations who make those products...your car, your plastic bags, your food, your exotic pet, etc. If you want it and are willing to pay for then you're creating a demand for. The processes involved in producing all of these things is what's killing our planet. There is only one solution to this problem...stop the demand!...and that starts with us. If we don't demand products then companies have no reason to make them. Think about that next time you're about to buy a useless trinket that will just end up sitting on your shelf for a few years then ultimately end up in the garbage. Think about everything you buy and ask yourself what price did the planet have to pay just so you can have useless things in your life.
8:49 SO BEAUTIFUL!! How amazing that the pup is so comfortable with a human and then the mum pops out of the water😭❤️ really lovely animals are a beautiful thing. Breaks my heart that almost to none of the pups survived in 2017, because of us 😭
"In 2017 the ice broke up so early the entire years pups drowned over night" Well uh that just got dark Literally people should stop global warming i mean like, bro aren't you sad about the animals dying?
Humans: I left my mom Polar Bears: My mom left when I was 2 years old! Harp Seal: Really!? My mom left when i was 10 days old!.. Turtles:.....im I a joke!?
@@loveislove2359 If I'd be the mother, I'd better watch off the human rather than the other seals... If polar bears are the main natural predator of the species, between global warming, pollution and the annual seal pup slaughter we are the worst calamity to them.
Bertie, thank you for this. Thank you to everyone who made this video possible. The photography is phenomenal, your enthusiasm is infectious, the sea ice is melting, and the time is NOW. We are the stewards of Planet Earth. There will come a time when it will be too late to reverse the damage we have done. What shall we do then? The entire harp seal pup population drowns overnight? Why did that have to happen? My greatest and most heartfelt thanks to you Bertie, for this documentary, and for the love you have for the seals. ✌🏻❤️🦭
I loved this series especially the music, the ending part of the song where the seal came up was so cool. Bertie Gregory was a great host, wish these episodes were longer. My favorite was probably the arctic fox episode, they're my favorite animal 🦔❄

Well in my place we regularly do tree plantings, we recycle our household waste like plastics etc., I drive less and usually prefer riding a bike or just walk, and I turn of my electronic devices when I'm not using it. Its simple things but I believe by doing it I am helping these animals as global warming contributes to the harp seal's race against time issue, Now imagine if most of of us or maybe all of us will do the simple things that you know could stop global warming, wouldnt it be a better world for us and these lovely creatures?
You do have a valid point sir, yeah you're right Im too young, 22 btw. But thank you for your insights and I will do some research about what you've brought up. I appreciate the time you've given me.
@@ellisonmangubat4376 Unfortunately we've reached a point where doing little things isn't enough any more. People need to start doing big things. Every problem on the planet is caused directly by us...the consumer. Everything you want and desire is provided for you by corporations who make those products...your car, your plastic bags, your food, your exotic pet, etc. If you want it and are willing to pay for then you're creating a demand for. The processes involved in producing all of these things is what's killing our planet. There is only one solution to this problem...stop the demand!...and that starts with us. If we don't demand products then companies have no reason to make them.
Think about that next time you're about to buy a useless trinket that will just end up sitting on your shelf for a few years then ultimately end up in the garbage. Think about everything you buy and ask yourself what price did the planet have to pay just so you can have useless things in your life.
I have no words to describe how fascinating this is . Its the story of a seal pup, its the story of our survival, the earths survival too.
That face and those eyes are killin me..what a pretty pup
8:49 SO BEAUTIFUL!! How amazing that the pup is so comfortable with a human and then the mum pops out of the water😭❤️ really lovely animals are a beautiful thing. Breaks my heart that almost to none of the pups survived in 2017, because of us 😭
"In 2017 the ice broke up so early the entire years pups drowned over night"
Well uh that just got dark
Literally people should stop global warming i mean like, bro aren't you sad about the animals dying?
so youre vegan then?
@@giulianicola that's a strawman argument
@@adventuringboat2564 i just asked a simple question.
@@giulianicola Yes, a question out of place.
I love meat and I care about these things.

This video is so powerful. i'm happy to watch it, brought me in tears. This is reality that everyone should be aware of.
9:22 to 9:25 my weak heart broke into pieces. Both for mom and the pup. Specially for the cute little pup. god why! So sad 😭
I love the way he looks at the animal! With smiles and how he adores the pups is pure awesomeness!!!
This guy does this passionately. Really cute too
This is the cutest thing I have ever seen I almost cried when the pup was swimming
I watch this wonderful mircle every morning. It keeps me grounded. And I realized how precious and beautiful life is
9:17
This farewell scene just has something that I can’t explain...
(also didn’t know there were arctic ninjas and their frozen ognions)
9:25 "TOP TEN SADDEST MOMENTS IN HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE"
OAAAAO
i cried for 7 hours
top 1*
Bert's narration is astounding, he's voice is captivating and full of energy, love his character too.
"Unbelievable the amount of change that a tiny Little new born now, To a Fat sausage"
Lmao😂😂
l o l
Humans: I left my mom
Polar Bears: My mom left when I was 2 years old!
Harp Seal: Really!? My mom left when i was 10 days old!..
Turtles:.....im I a joke!?
That's how nature has designed for each of her specoes. Fair enough 🤗
Why did it make me cry when the mama harp seal encouraged the baby harp seal to swim?, it was soooo cute🥺🥺🥺🥺
I want to cradle it and give it so many hugs and kisses
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life it give me chills. Thank you National geographic for everything your crews go through.
"How incredible must it be to realize you are actually built for the very medium that was so daunting just minutes ago." ❤️❤️❤️
5:58 "in 2017 the ice broke up so early, the entire year's pups drowned overnight."
That sentence broke me :(
I cried
im going to cry
Cmon we need some good news
@@remyodanga1433 sure, join the fight against climate change
8:49 seal to cameraman: **boop**
omg it was so cute
And then mom pops up "hey who are you?"
@@redshift4551 **b l o o p**
@@loveislove2359 If I'd be the mother, I'd better watch off the human rather than the other seals... If polar bears are the main natural predator of the species, between global warming, pollution and the annual seal pup slaughter we are the worst calamity to them.
Imagine your mother abondoning you after 10 days you were born 😢
It's for survival so I wouldn't really blame them
Just like my brother's 6 abandoned Roblox accounts.
The more worse climate change become, they gonna have to learn everything in 1 day before the ice melts
Definitely happens 🤷♀️
I don't have to
11:30 God, that was a gorgeous ending.
8:59 looks like the mum wants to help you float aswell! She and her pup are adorable, you're very lucky to capture this on camera!
Bertie, thank you for this.
Thank you to everyone who made this video possible. The photography is phenomenal, your enthusiasm is infectious, the sea ice is melting, and the time is NOW. We are the stewards of Planet Earth.
There will come a time when it will be too late to reverse the damage we have done.
What shall we do then?
The entire harp seal pup population drowns overnight? Why did that have to happen? My greatest and most heartfelt thanks to you Bertie, for this documentary, and for the love you have for the seals. ✌🏻❤️🦭
7:25 that really stirs something inside of me. What an incredible moment I have just been given the privilege to witness.
🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
It's sad when the mother was hurrying her baby to drink😢
she was guiding it. in addition, teats ache when full
I loved this series especially the music, the ending part of the song where the seal came up was so cool. Bertie Gregory was a great host, wish these episodes were longer. My favorite was probably the arctic fox episode, they're my favorite animal 🦔❄
At 2:53 it is so funny the way he says "and it is totally helpless without mom right now"
Thank you Nat geo for such a wonderful documentary and for showing us the lives that exists in the artic ocean.
