Every day, we head out on the water not knowing exactly what we'll find. Some days it's monitoring wildlife, cleaning the oceans, minimizing threats, or simply being there to keep watch over animals that need protecting. What we do is only possible because of people like you. Your donations fuel the boat, support the crew, and make sure we're out there when marine life needs help. From all of us onboard—and from the animals whose lives are changed because someone showed up—thank you for being part of this work. Thank you to our partners and hero's @rescate_lobos_marinos @profepa_mx @pescaabc Visit Seashepherd.org and sign up for our newsletter. #seashepherd 🎥 by @newton.se

**멸종 위기: 삽코기타상어** 상어와 같은 몸과 가오리와 같은 지느러미를 가진 이 독특한 물고기는 모래 해저를 미끄러지듯 헤엄치지만 심각한 위기에 처해 있습니다. 많은 삽코기타고기 종이 남획, 혼획, 그리고 상어 지느러미 거래에서 지느러미에 대한 수요로 인해 현재 심각한 멸종 위기에 처해 있습니다. 이 작은 물고기는 멕시코 만에서 "준위협종"으로 간주됩니다. 이들은 천천히 자라고, 새끼를 거의 낳지 않습니다. 즉, 개체 수가 감소하면 빠르게 회복할 수 없습니다. 해안 서식지를 보호하고, 혼획을 줄이고, 음식의 출처를 아는 것은 균형을 유지하고 미래를 보호하는 데 도움이 됩니다. 더 많은 정보는 사이트에서 알아보세요! seashepherd.org 제공🔎 @newton.se 촬영 📸@fabian.rguez 생물학자 🌱@heidyocean #해양보존 #멸종위기종 #seashepherdsscs #환경보호 #🦈

Disentangling a sea lion is never a solo effort—it’s a collaboration built on trust, skill, and shared purpose. From the moment an entangled animal is spotted, local authorities, veterinarians, and our crew come together—each bringing critical expertise. Those experts are headed by @rescate_lobos_marinos @pescaabc and @profepa_mx, the wildlife authorities. Vets assess health and stress levels, authorities ensure safe coordination, and the team works to carefully remove harmful gear without causing further injury. Every successful release is proof that cooperation saves lives. It’s what turns a dangerous situation into a second chance in the wild. Visit SeaShepherd.org to defend the balance and protect the future. #SeaLion #MarineLife #OceanConservation #WildlifeRescue #Disentanglement ProtectOurOceans 🎥 by @newton.se
