Not even 2 months old – and already entangled in a gill net. He is so small, Naude can pick him out of the ocean and carry him around with one hand. The rescue itself is quick and easy, together with Wally and the help of his trusted Leatherman Raptor Tool, Naude removes a few strands of gill net and releases the little guy back into the ocean. But we have no answer to the question where a tiny pup like this would have been able to pick up a piece of gill net, a type of net that is illegal in most parts of the world, including Namibia? How did it get into the waters so close to Pelican Point?

Grabbing seals straight out of the water. Seal handling skills have improved a lot. Good work as usual.
Bravo ljudino 👍✌️🙏💓🇭🇷
okoy
Rescued right at the nick of time .
Makes me wonder how many of the seals drown getting hung up in those nets that are fouled on rocks or debris on the bottom and abandoned. I bet it is a fair number. Lucky for this one, he could break free to get back to the surface and find a caring group to save his life!! Great work folks!!
Great save thank you! 😉👍
Sure would be wonderful if there was some way to regularly sweep the ocean to pick up all this debris.
Good
Судя по количеству роликов , работы у парней меньше не становится . Люди смотрите и думайте . Мы здесь всего лишь гости , а не хозяева . Если не перестаним эгоистичьно гадить , следующие поколения не увидят этой красоты .
Buenos días como siempre son espectaculares los rescates que felicidad. Es un bebé nació de nuevo gracias hermosos
Hi I watched over ten ads~!!! to help ur group~!! cheer up!!!
I've watched this video quite a few times now…… I must say, all of your accents are just so beautiful! and quite charming indeed!
Ugggg, that gill netting is awful 🤬 thank you team for saving that little pups life 💙💙😇😇🙏🙏
What a tragic ending he would've had if you hadn't found him and gotten that net off…
Sweet tiny puppy. Thank goodness you guys have such good vision.
Starting at 1:32: dancing with seals.
Your are real heros i salute to your team great work 👍👍👍👍👍🇮🇳
Belo trabalho 😍
Cool "Catch the Puppy" dance!
Poor little guy, only been here a couple of weeks and already the awful scourge of gill net had him…thanks guys
👍💕
классно котика сластали)
good to see this channel grow. Do you guys use the youtube money for new equipment? Compared to your older virs your gloves look more solid, you have more and newer looking nets, everyone have multiple tools as opposed to older vids where you exchanged them between eachother, another mouth cam for Wally 🙂
I think I saw a row of teeth, not sure, but can pups of this age injure their rescuers with a bite?
What you said about "just lying off the water", what about being proactive and snorkeling along the shoreline and seeing if there are lines, and nets that you could remove / recover before the seals get stuck into them.
Fancy foot work!
Should get a scuba diver to go along the coast to look for things that could be harnful.

Bloody Excellent Stuff you guys do. Stuart from Melbourne AU
Great save! Lucky pup!
Wish you could somehow collab with The Ocean Cleanup team.
I would love to spend my time doing this !
Watching you hop/step barefoot through the seal pups was a sight for sure! And then hauling the entangled pup up with one hand! Anyone can tell this isn't your first rodeo and it's incredible!
I shouldn't laugh. But tip- toe through the babies was a little bit 😍 cute
