Seal pup released from line He Was Caught In Sticks While Thanking Rescuers

A genuinely unique baby seal rescue: Antoine and Naude from Ocean Conservation Namibia (OCN) were able to catch and release this seal baby without him biting or fleeing, unlike the majority of other saved seals.

In the course of their routine early-morning patrol to look for tangled seals, they spotted him near Pelican Point, close to Walvis Bay and Swakopmund. This one was entangled in a huge ball of fishing line that was most likely tossed overboard by a fishing boat.

Our wild animals are greatly impacted by humans. Ghost fishing nets make up a sizable percentage of the trash and plastic pollution in our oceans, and sustainability is not prioritized. This damaged newborn seal was fortunate to be spotted before starvation or suffocation claimed his life.
Our pets are entitled to better.
