Wow! As a physician who has dealt with and removed plenty of foreign objects from people, (but not seals), that was impressive! I'll be sure to show this to my veterinarian daughter, I know she'll be quite impressed, too. Thanks for showing us the uncut version, as people need to see the consequences of their actions. I always feel better about humanity and the world in general after watching your videos, and appreciate the service you provide those animals. I have to go make a donation to you now, because you're super stars! Thank you.
Only humans would have been able to take that crap out of that poor animal ! All these situations are bad but this takes the cake it was the worst that I've seen they didn't go up I got to the point that they needed to call a veterinarian ! You couldn't just let the animal go ! PS, carry a couple of towels to keep the animals face out of the sand !
@@billclark8241 Yeah, we elected a president who is too cowardly to stop the Zionists from slaughtering women and children in Gaza. One phone call from Sleepy Joe and the carnage would stop. Of course, the illegal evictions in East Jerusalem won't.
I've seen my dad help remove a few fish hooks from kids when someone would ask him for help they would come to visit us with crying and screaming kids, this was before we had a clinic even when we did they would ask my dad he even took out my little sister's stitches we had to use the military hospital in Anniston a long drive to remove them nope he did them with himself and mom of course and peroxide again before a town clinic
My whole body was tense watching this. It’s horrific the suffering these poor things go through. Thank god you found him and got it off. You’re heroes!
That was absolutely brutal. That poor animal must have been in incredible pain. I can't say it enough... Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your care and love for these animals.
This was brutal to watch. I can’t imagine how it must have felt having to decide the best way to remove it. Bless you all for your commitment to these rescues.
@@Bryan-Hensley Yes, I think he just gave up because he was weak and didn't have enough energy to fight very much. I worry he might be too weak to hunt and recover, but at least he has a chance now.
That poor, poor puppy. Hearing him breathe like that broke my heart. Thank you guys so much for your patience and dedication to helping that beautiful seal.. God bless you all.
Considering how extensive the damage was, the seal was very cooperative. Poor thing 😔 Appreciated the empathy you showed by giving reassurance as you spoke gently to the seal ✨🦭✨💛
Yep... That's Our Tony!!!💖😍🤗... Always Sooo Reassuring, Calming, and Kind Spoken to the Sea Puppies!!!💖😍🤗😉... You'd Swear they understand his every Warm Word!!!💖😍🤗.... May God Bless The Entire OCN Rescue Team!!!💖... You Guys Are All Sooo AMAZINGLY AWESOME!!!💖😃😍🤗😙😉... EVERYONE PLEASE PRAY THIS PRECIOUS SWEETHEART MADE A FULL RECOVERY!!!💖😃😍🤗😙😉
I agree. I was talking out loud to my computer in the hope that the guys would be able to free the seal of all the entanglements. I was kind of wishing there was something more they could do, medically, but I understand what they did was by far the most important thing.
I literally teared up when I saw how bad this little one was suffering. The person who left this in the water should have this done to then so they really understand what harm they are doing. I love you guys.
So hard to watch. 😞😢 Thank you so much to Naude, Antoine and Denzil for your compassion during this rescue. ❤ The seal has a chance to survive because of your refusal to give up. Heroes! 😇 (Since this rescue last year, have you seen him again?)🦭
Please don't hesitate to share these more challenging rescues. It's important for people to see not just the best and brightest but those days you guys are as emotionally wounded as the puppies are physically wounded. Education isn't always pretty -- sometimes exposing the stark reality is the only way to fully educate on the scope of things. Thank you for deciding to post this and share this, as well as share your own emotional reactions to seeing this.
Oh that poor darling.... No animal deserves that. I love how gently and soothingly you all speak to the seals, they know you mean no harm. You’re all incredible people 🤍
To show uncut versions is to show the reality of your work and the damage we cause to these poor seals due to neglegence and carelessness. Long live OCN!
It makes me glad that you offered this beautiful creature a cessation of the pain he was enduring. I bless your team for the sanctity and importance of what you do! I pray for the other seals around the world who suffer from humans doing but have no one to help them!
Absolutely horrific example of the harm caused to these hapless creatures. Thank you so much OCN for your determination, persistence, and the care you show.
This comment comes 1 year and 9 months (roughly) since the video was posted. This was an amazing rescue and intervention. You all worked beautifully as a team, no egos as it's all about the seals. Thank you so much for all that you do on and off camera. I can't imagine having that kind of injury and having then to live in salt water. The pain must be excruciating. All caused by us...shameful that we've trashed their living environment. We must do better. Thank you for bringing attention to these issues! God bless you all. 😊❤️🌻🙏🏻
You are so kind. Considering some cultures don't even recognise that animals feel pain, your thoughtfulness and reassurance to a 'dumb' animal is humbling. Thank you, my new heroes.
I'm so so sorry for the pain you went through, Seal. One of the most difficult and heart-wrenching rescues.... I really really hope the seal survived. Very well done, OCN!
And to add - I could tell they the entire deal team was effected by this rescue. It hurt everyone’s heart. Heal pup and thrive. Hugs to all for your humanitarian work. You all make a difference.
This seal was already very emacinated. Heartbreaking! But for sure it felt a big relief after you removed this horrible entanglement on it´s snout and I hope it will survive and heal up. Thank you so much for this rescue, you are real heroes!
Don't even know from how much time this entanglement stuck in innocent's mouths ....sorry brothers but i can even watch this fully as i got too much emotional ....lots of thanks for saving this innocent life before its too late ....🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aloha, “Ok, now open your mouth buddy, open your mouth, please open your mouth! “ wow, that was truly a testament to your caring for these wonderful creatures. We really need to see this uncut version more often so we can see just how much can be involved in doing this job and just how much damage and the suffering these majestic creatures endure due to our laziness, neglect and stupidity! And then getting the necessary “sea crop” from the ocean to start the cleaning, medication and healing the horrific wound. Thank you for doing this for us all! Aloha from Hana! 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋
Oh my goodness - Gentlemen you are all incredible. I hope the seal has/had as much fight in him to live on as you all fought for the seal's life. Cried salty tears. We have to keep trying. Thank you for doing this for all of us - people and animals alike.
Great job from the standpoint that they were finally able to dislodge the line, but this was really frustrating to watch. None of these people give the appearance of any kind of training or veterinary knowledge. They also need a kit of specialized equipment, like a silicon padded oral retractor, an LED battery operated snake light, specialized hooks to get under tightly wrapped line, a fast acting topical to address infection (like a 10% iodine &saline solution,) and a thin mat (like a computer mouse pad) large enough to keep the seal from sinking and suffocating in the sand and to keep the sand from filling the seal's nostrils and mouth. Also, there should be some kind of training for these rescuers. Even though their hearts are in the right place, they really don't know what they are doing. The man who was trying to hook the line was terrified and kept backing off, and had no idea how to approach the problem. They should sew up toy seal, gather up some specialized equipment, and practice some different scenarios instead of the whole thing being OJT (on the job training). That poor seal should have been back in the water in under three minutes.
@@Brembelia I get what you're saying but this is an "on the job training" type of job. Where would you go for training for this? People would probably come to them for training!! A vet would not have the time for this. The end result is they got the job done with limited tools but with hearts of gold.
@@Brembelia i agree with a lot of points you've made, however, if they didn't try the way they did the seal was a goner. They don't always anticipate things this complex or severe, either. They prefer to help animals long before its this bad
His skinniness, lack of good running form, and slowness once he was released was very telling. Thank you for showing this and for all the good work you do.
So intense and heartbreaking that these creatures suffer from humankind’s stupidity and selfishness. Thank goodness there are folks like you guys who work so hard to help. You gave this seal the only chance he has to live. I hope his natural environment will help him to heal. Thank you, gentlemen, for all you do. You give me hope in humankind after all. ❤
I hope all of you have someone to tell you how great you are and give you big hugs after days like this I just watched. Heroes every one of you. You are appreciated!!!
Thanks for putting out these videos .It restores my faith in humanity . Much kudos to all involved, great work . Animals need our help and you guys are awesome
Thank you so very much for trying to save this poor seal. I sure hope he survives the infection and can heal. I'm sure the salt water will work to clean the wounds. You folks are amazing!!!
I think its important that you have these tough rescues to go through to learn more and more how to deal with any situation that occurs. I mean all of us here wants no entanglements at all of course but we are not there yet. And the next best thing for me is a super team which we have in OCN.
You all are amazing, how hard you worked to save this seal ❤❤❤❤ I know many others might have given up when they realized his had an entanglement inside his mouth yet I was so happy to see none of you gave up 😊 Thank you for taking the time to try and help him have a chance to feed and heal ❤❤❤❤
This was extremely painful to watch. I am glad you persevered and finally got the line off his mouth. I would like to believe he is now fully grown and frolicking in the sea.
I am so glad you posted this. Your work is not just snapshots of excitement to lull people into thinking that what you do is quick and easy. What you do is tiring and difficult, and highlights the danger humans put wildlife into. This is a necessary video, and tbh I think you have a duty to show videos like this. Some things in life are difficult, but necessary.
How can the public at large help? Is there equipment we can supply or money we can give your organization. Ways to catch people who do this to the seals and give them some of the same treatment they have given these poor seals?
Please understand that you as rescuers are undergoing trauma as well. You also need healing after such difficult work. You need help too! 😢 I’m in tears.
Awe. That poor thing. The pain he was going through and being unable to eat must have been horrific for him. I hope he has enough strength and he can use his mouth to eat. Thank you for doing everything possible for him.
Omg I couldn't work out what was going on or where they were cutting, poor seal. Those guys just seem to remain so focused, thank goodness they are. Unbelievable people. Bless them. Thank you for helping all the seals. I want to know how they don't hate fishermen and their poxy nets
Oh my God!! What an effort!! And can't even think about the pain the poor animal is enduring.... Thank you so much. The world is a beautiful place because people like you are still in it....
When the vid came up I was like "15 minutes, what the heck? Are they gonna be talking the whole time?" Then i saw how bad it was & felt "Oh Lord, take all the time you need." You guys are awesome.
I’M CRYING!! 😭😭😭 Seeing that poor seal’s nose all swollen up is heart wrenching! Naude, Denzil and Tony, you guys are beyond incredible! Your teamwork and determination are without equal. I can’t commend you guys enough 🎉❤️🙌🤩🦭🌊
This operation would be hard enough with an unconscious seal on an operating table, and y'all got it done with a fully conscious seal on a beach in under a half hour, with a net and a few household tools. You guys are heroes, genuinely. ❤️
I am sorry Naude you had to experience such a difficult rescue. I know if you gave up it meant to be fatal for the seal. I have so much respect for you and your mission.
You do this exactly right to post this video also. Everyone has to see the damage this can do to the pure animals. Thank you so much for your amazing help you give to the animals. Love it ❤
Just friggin unreal...your devotion , teamwork and determination to give these animals the best possible chance of recuperating and living a seals life is outstanding. I'm just blown away. With watery eyes.
This was beyond rough, but it seemed like seal knew that he needed help and was very cooperative. Agonizing situation for this innocent creature but still there is hope, thanks to all of you...
So confusing for the animal. It's caught by predators and inside of a net it cannot escape. It's in terrible pain and has trouble breathing because there's a weight on it. Has to be turned upside down to be helped which is distressing. It tolerates all of that handling and temporary discomfort well with the end result that the most painful thing Man has done to it is relieved. Let's hope that the salt water will help cleanse the infection and, with feeding now it will recover fully and the tissues will heal.
Watching this makes me want to cry. He is in sooo much pain. Praying he makes a full recovery from this. I always pick up loose fishing line and rope when found at lakes and the Gulf. Thank You for caring and helping these innocent creatures From Texas
This is by far the saddest rescue me and the wife have watched. We just hope the seal managed to heal and start eating. Well done Naude and team, top marks yet again.
I sat here in tears. I was having a bit of a panic attack over this fella. This is heart breaking. Thank God for you men. Thank you for doing this for these animals everyday. Also I hope you get those light blue sweater shirts back soon.
Con que cariño tratais a les focas sois fabulósos y el esfuerzo que haceis para poder sacarles todó. Parece mentida que no sean conscients las persones que tiran de tanta por queria en el mar.

@EPloar Div Yep doesn't look like he has much of shot unfortunately but he definitely has more with the line off!
If he doesn't make it, he'll have his last days in peace and with lot less pain
I’m trying so hard to help you guys from USA!
Poor seal . Thankfully you found him just in time . He was so skinny from not eating . That was a horrible wound .
This channel shows us that there are humans out there in the world who are doing aspiring and selfless things.

He must have felt so much relief after the removal. I think by the end he was pretty much resigned to accepting your help. Great job guys!
Unlikely he felt any immediate relief. It would take a while for that to be pain free
@@Bryan-Hensley Yes, I think he just gave up because he was weak and didn't have enough energy to fight very much. I worry he might be too weak to hunt and recover, but at least he has a chance now.
@@junbh2 going to hurt to eat, worries me. Hopefully saltwater will start helping immediately 🙏🙏😢😢💙💙
His upper jaw is torn apart. Due to infection which undoubtedly spread, everything hurts and is numb at the same time. It will take a long time
@@Bryan-Hensley I think there would have been immediately relief. The line no longer digging into the bone would have been a massive relief.
That poor, poor puppy. Hearing him breathe like that broke my heart. Thank you guys so much for your patience and dedication to helping that beautiful seal.. God bless you all.

I was tensing up so much throughout, especially when they were trying to get the knot out.

Heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. God bless you. I hope you will see this seal healed and thriving in the future.
My heart is breaking for them. Such unnecessary suffering at our hands and so few prepared to do anything to put an end to it.
@Projekt Kobra Sure......it not my fault. Let someone else deal with it.
So intense and heartbreaking that these creatures suffer from humankind’s stupidity and selfishness. Thank goodness there are folks like you guys who work so hard to help.

Remember that seals can hold their breath for a really long time. But being sick and stressed likely dimms that somewhat.

Wow…the toughest rescue I’ve seen! Fantastic job, guys!
Awe. That poor thing. The pain he was going through and being unable to eat must have been horrific for him. I hope he has enough strength and he can use his mouth to eat. Thank you for doing everything possible for him.
Omg I couldn't work out what was going on or where they were cutting, poor seal. Those guys just seem to remain so focused, thank goodness they are. Unbelievable people. Bless them. Thank you for helping all the seals. I want to know how they don't hate fishermen and their poxy nets
Aww I'm so glad you guys could help him. Its heartbreaking to see so much damage! I hope he heals well.
Poor little puppy 😢 I hope he recovers from the injury 😢 thank you for saving his life ❤️ greetings to all 🙋🏻😊

@@ramblynrocketeer Aloha Ahiahi 😊🙋🏻 pehea 'oe ?
@@TheFelifa Hallo 😄🙋🏻 bin froh das die Jungs von OCN ihm helfen konnten 😢
Hola chicos! 🙋🏻♀️😃🇪🇦
So sad! He’s so weak. I hope his wounds heal and that he will be okay. 😢. Thank you for not giving up.
Oh my God!!
What an effort!!
And can't even think about the pain the poor animal is enduring....
Thank you so much.
The world is a beautiful place because people like you are still in it....
When the vid came up I was like "15 minutes, what the heck? Are they gonna be talking the whole time?" Then i saw how bad it was & felt "Oh Lord, take all the time you need." You guys are awesome.
I’M CRYING!! 😭😭😭 Seeing that poor seal’s nose all swollen up is heart wrenching! Naude, Denzil and Tony, you guys are beyond incredible! Your teamwork and determination are without equal. I can’t commend you guys enough 🎉❤️🙌🤩🦭🌊
This operation would be hard enough with an unconscious seal on an operating table, and y'all got it done with a fully conscious seal on a beach in under a half hour, with a net and a few household tools. You guys are heroes, genuinely. ❤️
Какой сложный, напряжённый случай. Не перестаю восхищаться вами. Вы для меня герои. Спасибо.
All I wanted to do is cry and ask for forgiveness to the seal.
Tank you héroes.
Да, несчастный тюлень был на грани.. Спасибо команде за эту спасенную жизнь!
I am sorry Naude you had to experience such a difficult rescue. I know if you gave up it meant to be fatal for the seal. I have so much respect for you and your mission.
This was a really nasty one, I'm so glad you guys stuck it out. Hopefully the sea water will help clear up that horrible wound now.
Worst entanglement! I do hope he heals well❣️. Your patience in removing the line is wonderful. Thanks💖🇨🇦
Poor Baby.. ❤️ your patience and dedication are heavenly.. thank you.. REMIND BOATER AND FISHERMAN.. Our oceans are not garbage cans.. !!
A big thank you guys for saving this beauty. God bless. No words.
Thank you for all you do...we can only pray this baby made a full recovery with your help
Words cannot express the amount of love and gratitude I have for three people I’ve never met. You are truly angels on earth. Thank you!! ❤️
This is one of the most intense, nail biting, edge of my seat videos I've seen on this channel. I love that the seal knew you were helping. Great job!
You do this exactly right to post this video also. Everyone has to see the damage this can do to the pure animals. Thank you so much for your amazing help you give to the animals. Love it ❤
That was horrific. So much pain for the poor animal. Thank you for not giving up. Now it is in the hands of nature to take care of this guy.
Just friggin unreal...your devotion , teamwork and determination to give these animals the best possible chance of recuperating and living a seals life is outstanding. I'm just blown away. With watery eyes.
I'm setting here watching this with tears in my eyes. Bless its precious heart and the rescue groups also. Thank you gentlemen for the job you do.
Excellent job! You guys are awesome. Thank you for all you do.❤
Thank you for helping that poor boy. Such an awful injury.
What wonderful guys to help make these great seals live a better life without horrible situations. Thanks. 🙏
This was beyond rough, but it seemed like seal knew that he needed help and was very cooperative. Agonizing situation for this innocent creature but still there is hope, thanks to all of you...
So confusing for the animal. It's caught by predators and inside of a net it cannot escape. It's in terrible pain and has trouble breathing because there's a weight on it. Has to be turned upside down to be helped which is distressing.
It tolerates all of that handling and temporary discomfort well with the end result that the most painful thing Man has done to it is relieved.
Let's hope that the salt water will help cleanse the infection and, with feeding now it will recover fully and the tissues will heal.
It's not tolerating it. It's too tired to keep fighting. Very few animals can realize that we are trying to help them.
Watching this makes me want to cry. He is in sooo much pain. Praying he makes a full recovery from this. I always pick up loose fishing line and rope when found at lakes and the Gulf.
Thank You for caring and helping these innocent creatures
From Texas
Wow, that was intense. I hope he recovers fully. You boys are so fantastic.
This is by far the saddest rescue me and the wife have watched. We just hope the seal managed to heal and start eating. Well done Naude and team, top marks yet again.
I can't imagine how much pain that poor little seal had 💔 thanks you soo much for saving it
Das war wirklich Präzisionsarbeit mit einfachsten Mitteln, vielen Dank für euren Einsatz und euren Mut. Bitte nicht aufgeben 🙏🥰👏
That poor pup was so good for you guys! I’m really rooting for him to heal and be restored to his former beauty!
I sat here in tears. I was having a bit of a panic attack over this fella. This is heart breaking. Thank God for you men. Thank you for doing this for these animals everyday. Also I hope you get those light blue sweater shirts back soon.
The team should officially be awarded with a title ‘Seal Surgeon-Entanglement Removal Specialists’.
WOW! That last one was a tough one. Thank you guys for the work you are doing to save the seals.
Con que cariño tratais a les focas sois fabulósos y el esfuerzo que haceis para poder sacarles todó.
Parece mentida que no sean conscients las persones que tiran de tanta por queria en el mar.
