What Happens When Nobody’s Watching

A split-second decision at sea turned into a life-threatening situation for this young seal.
This “mega-pup” had a tight loop of snoek line around her chest, carelessly discarded by someone out on the ocean who didn’t think twice. We’ve heard it before: “There’s no time to stash tangled line when the fish are biting.” So instead, the ocean becomes a bin. The line sinks or floats, and sooner or later, it wraps around something living.
OCN rescuers Antoine and Damian needed only a few seconds to cut the line and free her, but the damage could have lasted a lifetime. Or worse.
Discarded gear like this is a constant threat. It doesn’t get removed. It doesn’t get traced. It doesn’t get punished. And the animals who pay the price? They don’t get a say.
Imagine if fishermen were held accountable for the waste they leave behind. A deposit system. A return quota. A penalty for pollution. Right now, that’s just wishful thinking, because the damage happens underwater, and out of sight is out of mind.
