The OCN rescue team is on the lookout for seals that may be entangled in ocean rubbish like plastic straps or knotted fishing line. Typically, they identify these seals by the visible entanglements, but today a particularly sad-looking seal catches their eyes. Trusting their instincts and experience, the team takes a chance, and their hunch proves right: the seal is trapped in fishing line, likely enduring immense pain from the tight entanglement. They work quickly to remove the line and free th

The OCN team's dedication is beyond question. They give their all, even in tough conditions with slippery terrain and sharp rocks. Each team member faces immense pressure because there’s only one chance to rescue seals in these remote parts of the Skeleton Coast. There is no room for mistakes. If the rescuers fail, they die. #ocn #oceanconservationnamibia #sealrescues #plasticpollution #raisingawareness | Ocean Conservation Namibia

While patrolling the Cape Cross area, the OCN rescue team spotted several seals entangled in fishing lines and plastic packaging straps, threatening their mobility. The team managed to save some badly injured young seals, but the dangers of marine debris—including restricted movement, drowning, starvation, and smothering—remain a serious threat. #ocn #oceanconservationnamibia #sealrescues #plasticpollution #raisingawareness | Ocean Conservation Namibia

Call out rescue for OCN - multiple tour guides had notified us about a very skinny looking seal with a massive hook attached to her face in Sandwich Harbour, a beautiful and very picturesque area about 50km South of our usual rescue grounds at Pelican Point. She seems relaxed when Naude and Antoine crawl towards her and they successfully net her before she can get close to the waves. They are delighted when they realise that the net had somehow popped out the hook, and she is immediately set fre

At OCN, we usually focus on our mission to protect marine life and to raise awareness about plastic pollution. These issues are at the heart of everything we do. But today, we want to give a shout out to the rescue team for conducting seal rescues in the most horrible and often revolting conditions. The little muddy puddles you see in this video are a mixture of rotten fish, concentrated ocean water and seal feces. The smell and consistency are revolting, but the rescuers will jump right in if i

A good day with three rescues in one! The OCN team had spotted more than one entangled seal in the same group at Pelican Point. They split the team into two to observe the group of seals from both sides. Denzil catches the first seal and Naude brings the big net to secure it. Tony spots their second target, a badly injured seal with two different entanglements wrapped around him. Naude and Wally carefully remove the entanglement that has already cut into the seal's skin and flipper. Luckily the
