Imagine being the seal: first you get almost strangled, and when you try to hide in the group, they spot exactly you! Ha! But you were lucky and could escape. They must have been distracted by that thing you had around your neck.
What a juggling act! I can't believe you hung on to both of them after they got out of the nets and reached the water, more than once. You guys are truly something!
The most amazing thing for me was having scissors in one hand and getting bitten he still managed to ctach two seals at the same time without hurting them.
I give you people full credit for not giving up. Of course, the seal pups get an A+ for shear determination on trying to escape. In the end, everyone won, seals escaped but minus an entanglement. Hope the bite wasn't too bad. Great job, all of you. 🇨🇦
*"Hope the bite wasn't too bad."* doesn't look like it. from the footage it looks like he was lucky and the seal didn't get a clean hit, the watch and the shirt sleeve took most of it.
Wow, the determination of the two sea puppies wanting to escape, and Naude’s determination to bring them back, must have been exhausting. Definitely a tougher crowd today than usual, but everyone did a great job saving all of them. Thank you for being their heroes!🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭💕👍🙏🏻
Oh myyyy.... we've all had days like that! Well, okay, maybe not *quite* as intense as what the OCN team deals with 😀... but where everything seems to go wrong before it gets taken care of. Thank you for your amazing work!
You were dealing with some 'mischievous' seals that day! Fortunately you succeeded in rescuing them all and had a good laugh afterwards. Thanks guys!💕🦭
I shouldn't laugh but I did. I know the struggle was real. Those seals needed your help badly and I'm sure the bite didn't tickle. I didn't know seal juggling was a thing! I watched it three times. Well done Naude, Antwoine & Hawain!
OMG Naude!!! I have always admired that even with the pain of your daughter's illness (which thank God she has already overcome) your compassion and your commitment to save these beautiful creatures has always been 100%! And your rescue today definitely corroborates that! There is nothing left but to thank the Lord for yours and your team presence in this world and for the wonderful work that you guys do!!!! 👏❤️👏❤️👏
Thank you for your kind words! While we’re deeply committed to helping the seals, we know our work is just a small part of a much bigger battle. Our rescues highlight the urgent need to address the root causes of ocean pollution-like our reliance on single-use plastics and the gaps in law enforcement and recycling efforts. By sharing these stories, we hope to inspire real change that goes beyond treating the symptoms and starts tackling the problem at its source.
Oh, man, good job Naude. Have to admit I was laughing even as I was worrying that they were going to get away. Again, you did a stellar job of controlling two feisty seals. Bravo!
This just makes my heart ache and my blood boil! Humans are causing so much suffering by dumping in the oceans. I’d come to help you gentlemen but the seals are faster than me!😂 words cannot express how FABULOUS you are for helping these beauties❤❤❤❤
OMG - if it wasn’t so serious it would be hilarious! I’ve always admired your work but this takes it to another level. Well done my friends !! I donate whenever I can and I’ll do so again right now You are true heroes!! 🙏👏❤️🙏👏❤️
Thank GOD for your tenacity! Those squirmy wormies almost squiggled loose and away to the sea before you could disentangle them, most likely would never be seen again, BUT YA GOT EM! GREAT JOB!!! 💖🎉
Man that was unusual too see. But im sure nature will clean up the fish carcassess very quickly. Both jackals and seabirds must be very happy about that feast. Well Done OCN.
Those two little ones figured out very quickly how to slip out of the net and tested Naude and Hawain's determination. Wow, that was many seals rescued in one run. Thank you OCN !
I have so much respect for those seals who despite being entangled their desire to live makes them fight back or escape. Great work guys, hope the bites were quickly dealt with and not too deep
The frustration those two seals caused trying to escape their rescuers. But in the end, the determination of the team prevailed in freeing them of from the garbage trying to slowly kill them. Thank you OCN ❤❤❤❤
OMG, I’ve never seen such a lot of escapees! I’m sorry but I was laughing when they kept trying to get out. The two of them together were almost too much! So many flipper tracks in the sand.. the sardines must have hyped them up! Seriously though, thanks for the determination you show every time. What a great team you are together. Thank you 🙏
Naude, you really fought the seals from getting away from you. I had to chuckle. I cannot believe how close the seals came to leaving your grasp. Awesome job by everyone 👏. That was a very busy morning for all rescuers. Enjoy your day today.
That was laugh out loud funny hahahaha!! Those two were the smartest wily little seals ever lol! I'm almost 60. When I was a young Mom 32 years ago, we had glass bottles for pop, beer and other things. There was a deposit fee which you got back when you returned the bottles, which were then cleaned, refilled and put back on shelves. Kids made pocket money collecting bottles to cash in, I have great memories of combing the ditches every spring looking for bottles. Sometimes you'd find really old ones, which was so cool. Yes, they weigh more but it's one thing we should consider going back to.
They all seemed very chubby and strong. That's a good sign. They gave you guys quite the workout. Thank you for doing what you do. Your teamwork and communication is impressive.
Oh my gosh you were all up against a bunch of naughty kids, I was chuckling at them running off with nets! Congratulations on so many, I lost count ❤❤❤❤❤❤ from me in PE
Great respect for the work you do. Poor things have no idea they'll strangle to death slowly if you don't get those things off them and so run away from you and bite. Thanks for being so kind and brave to do what you do.
Thank you, everyone, from the team on the beach to the people behind the keyboard for all you do to help seals and other sea creatures. You're real heroes for coming back day after day to help those that are entangled.
It’s good to laugh how comical the rescue situation was even if it was equally tragic to find seals so badly entangled. It cannot be easy to see this amount of suffering daily. Thank you heroes🩵
AND have to go home knowing how many got away!!! To bad that the ones who were released from pain & suffering can't tell the others how they were helped & that it didn't even hurt!
If ever I thought, I, a 56 kg woman of 57, could do this job, this video corrected my fantasy! What an insane amount of strength and agility it takes to wrangle these slippery seals, sometimes simultaneously, and fixate them long enough to be able to cut the strains that strangle them! Chapeau, Naude!!! 🎩 👏👏👏

CONGRATULATIONS, YOU ARE BEING RESCUED. PLEASE DO NOT RESIST.
Imagine being the seal: first you get almost strangled, and when you try to hide in the group, they spot exactly you! Ha! But you were lucky and could escape. They must have been distracted by that thing you had around your neck.
Resistance is futile when you are being saved!
What heroes you all are! Bless all concerned! 🙏 "Isa"
It actually brings a tear to my eyes to see not only how hard those little pups fight for survival but also how hard all of you fight to save them...
And bitten!!
YESSS exactly my thoughts too!!!
Same here ❤
OMG you guys are just so great thank you.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Individual recreational fishing should be banned.....
I am always amazed you can spot the seals that are entangled.
Me too. They have bionic eyesight 😂
They have to have insane vision I agree but I think what their looking at is their fur, they are looking for a division in the fur
The fur around the rope/net/string looks broken where it should be smooth...but still, you need a good eye to spot them.
What a juggling act! I can't believe you hung on to both of them after they got out of the nets and reached the water, more than once. You guys are truly something!
Juggling act is right. I was laughing and crying with the determination of both sides .
It reminded me of the three stooges! Or a mom with a set of 2 year old triplets!! Lol
The most amazing thing for me was having scissors in one hand and getting bitten he still managed to ctach two seals at the same time without hurting them.
Hahahaaaa!! Slippery little guys!
Such good work I live inland but you have me being really careful about my trash
The little witches’hats running over the sand really looks hilarious.
Thank you for saving the pups 😍
I'm not sure who had the most determination
OCN team never gives up!!

@@gourdgurugood reason to wear a watch: Extra bite protection
That looks hard work, well done lads! The seals need you, they shouldn't but this is the world we live in sadly😢
The sea puppers are making you work hard for it this time.
🙂👍
YOU GIYS ARE ANGELS ON EARTH, GOD BLESS YOU💙💙💙💙

To the rescuers: I salute you on your efforts. Thank you for caring enough to help like this
Those two little escape artists should get their own magic show in Vegas! 😂❤
🤣
That's exactly what we DON'T want!!
@@arienoordzij3823 right? no more magic shows ugh LMAO
@@arienoordzij3823It was just a joke.
@@Debbie338 Some people are so sour the pee vinegar.
That came close to a Keystone Kops rescue. But you Kops successfully rescued the fur babies!!
Those two escape artists, oh my, they had you puffing! Bless you for all you are doing - total respect.
I felt like I watched a rugby match. I truly appreciate your service and compassion.
Oh myyyy.... we've all had days like that! Well, okay, maybe not *quite* as intense as what the OCN team deals with 😀... but where everything seems to go wrong before it gets taken care of. Thank you for your amazing work!
Wow there were so many today! Thank you OCN! Hawain is a great addition to the team!
God bless for all that you’re doing to save these precious animals. They don’t deserve to be stuck in our trash😢♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️
You were dealing with some 'mischievous' seals that day! Fortunately you succeeded in rescuing them all and had a good laugh afterwards. Thanks guys!💕🦭
🙂👍
Fast reactions needed today. Well done and thank you for saving the seals.

Good gosh!!! I am very sorry but that was funny! At the same time that was one of the most difficult rescues I've seen! Kudos to you all!!!💪👏

I am impressed at the continued good humour of the OCN crew. Their compassion for the pups is so powerful. 🦭❣️
Laughed a bit at the escape artists, want to cry a bit at the need to rescue them in the first place. Good work guys.
OMG Naude!!! I have always admired that even with the pain of your daughter's illness (which thank God she has already overcome) your compassion and your commitment to save these beautiful creatures has always been 100%! And your rescue today definitely corroborates that! There is nothing left but to thank the Lord for yours and your team presence in this world and for the wonderful work that you guys do!!!! 👏❤️👏❤️👏

This is hilarious! 😂 I hope no skin was broken with that bite and you're okay! You all are amazing! ❤
Thank you for working so hard to rescue these babies.
You guys got your exercise today! If only the seals understood that you are there to help them! Keep up the great work!!!❤

... and this is how seals help to keep Naude fit. 😂
This is a great video. You’re working so hard to help the little guys survive and they’re fighting so hard not to let you.
They really made you work today. So grateful you are helping them.
😅❤
What a dance Antoine 😂 I didn't know whether to laugh or cry 😢 Great job....to all of you.❤❤❤❤
Juggling pups who are scared and in pain, but you are saving lives! It was quite the show!
What a day!!! One for the records. Well done Chaps.😊
🙂👍
Omgosh Naude you got the two most determined pups ever! Hawain's almost ate the net! What a day. Bless you guys!❤
🙂👍
Those two little ones figured out very quickly how to slip out of the net and tested Naude and Hawain's determination. Wow, that was many seals rescued in one run. Thank you OCN !
addicted to the way antoine says puppy, so full of love and care despite the exhausting situation. keep doing what yall are doing!!
I have so much respect for those seals who despite being entangled their desire to live makes them fight back or escape. Great work guys, hope the bites were quickly dealt with and not too deep
You are angels for undoing the damage caused by irresponsible humans 🥺

Quick today! They certainly made you work. Thank you for everything you do for them. Seems like you had invisible nets today.
They are quick today , thank you all for your hard work

Another Big Thank You Greetings from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

Such nasty tangles. But those teeth! Thanks for your tenacity, sirs!
Amazing rescues. I love how all of you never give up and go beyond to help these beautiful creatures.

Thank you for doing what you do. Your teamwork and communication is impressive.
WOW! They really gave you guys a run for your money today!! You guys are great, my heroes ❤❤
Wow…those sweet puppers gave you guys a work out today! I don’t think I’m strong enough to do that. Thank you for never giving up! ❤
These lil rascals really had the poor rescuers sucking air today!!! Awesome work gentlemen!!! ❤❤❤
Title is absolutely correct. That is one comical rescue! 😂
Thank you all and bless you and what you do!

They were real escape artists! It was amazing that you caught them again & again!

Hilarious and adorable, as well as infuriating to see so many entangled. You guys are heroes!
I’m exhausted just watching them. God bless you
Amist all this chaos, at least the whole Team was there, and not one got away unsaved! Great job OCN! Someone needs to buy you lunch and a beer!
Wow! That was comical but so difficult at the same time! You gentlemen are amazing catching these babies to save them! THANK YOU ALL!❤💪

Wow, the continuous effort and passion to get these seals freed is amazing. Great Job Guys...

Thank you for saving as many seals you could, it beyond me how this day and age so much rubbish ends up in the sea, criminal.
Naude is in great shape to keep that tug of war going! 🤗
Unfortunately a never ending battle, thank you guys 🙏

'Yakety Sax'. Fyi.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Its clear that you must have children because THAT'S EXACTLY what its like with a 2 and 3-1/2 yr old at bath time!! Well done 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Wow - the seals were feisty today. Thanks for your hard work and efforts.
The pups seem to have upped their game
Great work guys! We’re here cheering you on! You are all true heroes! 😊😊😊
Thank you. God bless. This is all I can say.
