    I think a small investment in bicycle helmets to wear when working on slippery rocks is in order! Also, the cameras can mount to the helmets easily. Please don't end up in the hospital with head trauma. The seals need you all!

      @ValeriePallaoro 3 года назад +86

      They normally don't do it off these rocks, it's sandy beach for the most part, so helmets are not needed, but I totally agree about the cameras. He uses it for collecting information for research (not just to show us), but there's just gotta be a better way to do it.

      @@rubinaevgenia987 I’m not sure how much of a vacation it is. They have to remain in top physical shape to run after these seals. While chasing them in dense groups, they have to dodge being bitten by other seals. They have to run on rocky and slippery terrain at times. Sometimes the “thank you “ that they get is a nasty deep bite that requires medical attention with medication after wrestling a large seal and rescuing it. I think it would be easier for them to vacation in Bali a couple of times a year.

    What an amazing rescue! Naude you may have been a bit battered and bruised from falling and having a seal jump on you, but you never give up!
    Thank you so much guys for helping the seals of Namibia!
    Btw I'm curious about Antoine's accent? Can anyone enlighten me, it sounds almost French?

    Naude took a beating in this one! Thank you for what you do!! I want desperately to come and volunteer my time to help with this endeavor. I wonder if I could start something like this in Maine. We see a lot of seals here.

      @@ValeriePallaoro No my friend, it was man responsible for the trash and seal’s playfulness that caught her into the trouble. God helped OCN team miraculously in the rescue. Didn’t you see it how the rope was caught into the rock until the team reached? Everything can’t be coincidence😊

    My stars this was amazing!! The extreme time and stealth required just for plotting this rescue was unbelievable. Then Naude getting knocked over by the seal then sliding down the rocks twice!! I really hope that you are ok from that 💖 That poor seal though, what a terrible entanglement that got her trapped yet saved her life! This video is _the_ blockbuster of your channel 😊 Thank you so much for what you, Naude and family and Antoine 💖💖💖

    I know there are tourists who would pay good money to watch it happen live on the beach. The money could fund more equipment, jobs and educate people on taking care of the planet. Each fishing line thoughtlessly thrown in the ocean, river, canal, could be inflicting pain on a marine animal in future. Hats off to these guys and girls. Thank you for including a female seal rescuer (in later videos, I saw there are female rescuers too)… good job all round. The seals can’t believe their luck and their hanging around sometimes just show animals know and are grateful even though some panic and runoff without hi fiving 😂!
