Painful Seal Rescue

Young seals are particularly vulnerable to entanglements. They are very curious and spend their days exploring the oceans. They play with anything they can find. Plastic is not part of their natural habitat, and they have no warning mechanisms or awareness of the imminent danger. Once a loop of fishing line, packing strap, clothing or any other imaginable debris is stuck on their necks, it stays. In the beginning, the entanglement won't do much harm. But as the seal grows daily, the loop starts to tighten until it looks like this. 🦭

@Carmen161595 Год назад

I love how for some seals their fear has melted away by the time you let them go and they’re in no hurry to run off. What a precious moment.

@JackCarregan 4 месяца назад

its more confusion I think, when they haven't been eaten or attacked they are kinda stunned. Same when I catch a lizard and then let it go, its confused. I don't help the lizard though, so different dynamic.

@rat2131 Месяц назад

sorry for late comment, and i cannot say this of every animal, as many do different things for differing reasons but many animals instinctually stop moving about once they’ve been caught and immobilized, as a last ditch effort to throw off whatever is holding them it’s very rare, but sometimes when something stops moving, a predator will lose interest, or loosen up, underestimating the energy of the animal moving only begins again in the captured animal when it is sufficiently free and sure it has a chance at escape (i have seen a downed and partially eaten gnu get up and walk away from lions that grew bored and lost sight!) freezing is a mechanism that has evolved for a good reason it is not unreasonable to speculate that these seals do perhaps understand that they’re not in imminent danger though, it is one possibility

@judwithaneye 3 месяца назад

Poor seal no. 2. That shoelace was so deep and it must have been so painful when you had to use the sharp tools in the wound. Hate to see those tiny loops when the seal's neck is so much larger. Thanks for removing it so gently. 😍😊

@Lacroix999 Год назад

He was apologizing for the increased pain he was causing them to get it off. If you ask me, we should ALL apologize for this because it’s humans as a whole that cause this damage with all the trash we consume that ends up in a landfill. Even your diapers used for your behind many years ago are still trying to break down in a landfill somewhere and even though they never will, in the mean time, they’re leaching toxic chemicals into the waterways. We’re all guilty in some level just by our mere existence on this planet.

@Lacroix999 11 месяцев назад

@@peanutbutterjellyjam4003 yeah, ok, just don’t let it happen again! 🙄 but in all honesty, some empathy in this world, wouldn’t hurt. Then again, people like you who don’t give a damn in the first place, probably don’t even know what that is.

@mnicholl93 Год назад

Tony you absolutely did the right thing; hopefully you'll catch up with the original target again before it causes problems but the little guy's only hope of survival was running into you on the beach. It's astounding it was able to run at all, when the others rushed for the sea but you could see how much it took out of the poor little guy with how patient and calm it was as you worked out the best way to remove the entanglement. I feel like I'm being choked if I put on a polar neck jumper but this little guy had managed to not give up, staying alive, with a noose half the size of it's neck! Animals just amaze me, and seals are especially resilient, thankfully. Hopefully this little guy will soon manage a hunt, to rebuild it's resources and get on with his life now, pain free for the first time in a long while. No doubt it will wear it's scar with pride, telling it's mates how it was saved by the strange net creatures, who aren't actually scary at all! I loved that the first seal wanted to stay with Wally, but it's such a shame that there are so many black straps discarded so thoughtlessly 😢 2 more seals with a future they didn't have before you intervened. Thank you 🙏🏻

The loops aren't that small at the beginning. Two things can happen. One is that the tension and activity pulls the loop tighter.
