Six Seals Rescued From Horrible Entanglement

Two! Two, guys! I need one more person! Here's one! Here's one! In you go. Come on! It's okay! It's okay! Out you go! White strap. Denzil and Wally are busy. Tony's got one in the bag. Here! Here! Here! On your right, here! On your right! In you go! I'm going to run again. It's okay. It's okay. Another one? Okay, you can go! What's he got? Overgrown in front. Okay, let me help you. Is there something in there? Look at the back. It could be one we saved two weeks ago maybe. It could be. But the infection looks too fresh. No, there's something there. There's something there. Okay, just hang on here. Let me get my pin. There we go! It's overgrown here, you'll have to pull it up. It's coming, okay! Oh, well done! Oh, that's a really bad one! Denzel, you got one of my tools? Yes. Is his entanglement very high? Yeah. Take a deep grip, Denzil. I've got both his flippers, you focus on the neck. He's got my tools. Grab his neck. Oh, man! This is horrible! Leave it like this. Leave it like this. There's a tag on the left here. One little roll if line! You're going to be fine now! Oh, look at that! Oh, man! Jeez, it's bad! It's cutting into its muscles. Sorry, buddy. Sorry, we did that to you. Okay, let's just try to recap. I don't know. I'm sorry. It's five, no? We might have to look at all the video footage to put it all together. I think it's five or six. I think it was six. I got two and another one. These two and Wally's one, six. I either got one and a recapture, or just a recapture, I can't be sure. I think it's six. It's going take longer sorting this footage out than helping them. So, yeah, I think there was six in one run. We have to go through the video again. I might be wrong but that was absolutely crazy. Just one after the other after the other. But I mean that's just crazy. We were here two weeks ago and it's just how quickly this thing has built up. Last time, we got 15. If there was six now, that'd take us up to 20 just for today.
