It took 45 minutes to rescue this seal from not one, but two fishing hooks. It was the longest and physically most demanding rescue of Ocean Conservation Namibia's rescuers up to date. Nobody could have predicted such a long and painful process to pull two hooks from the seal's face. The guys showed amazing team work, the focus was 100% on the rescue and the seal's well being and survival.
We have to make do with what we've got here in Namibia. Most of our rescues are quick catch and cut situations, unlike this one. If we had the facilities, we would have sedated this seal and taken him to a proper vet to have this painful procedure done under anesthetics - but we don't. We made the best out of a difficult situation, and although painful - the seal is strong and feisty and will make a quick recovery. In this case, the happy ending justified the less than ideal means. 🦭
