This young Cape fur seal didn’t know it yet, but he was in serious trouble. A discarded packing strap had tightened around his neck. It's a silent, deadly trap left behind by humans. When OCN rescuer Naude approached, the seal growled and fought back, unaware that help had finally arrived. With just two hands, a net, and a Leatherman, it takes mere seconds to cut away this piece of plastic. But for marine animals, every gram of ocean trash can mean a slow and painful death. This rescue shows how

Pulled From a Seal's Flesh It’s become a routine: spot the entangled seal, catch it, cut the plastic, and let it go. But there’s nothing routine about this for the animal. This seal was strangled by a fishing line. The wound was deep. The line came out cleanly, but that doesn’t make the experience any less terrifying for the animal. #ocn #oceanconservation #sealrescues #plasticpollution #raisingawareness | Ocean Conservation Namibia
