“Out of Sight, Out of Mind” captures how humans treat ocean waste. This Namibian Cape Fur Seal pup is entangled in recreational fishing line that will kill him without help. Plastic pollution threatens marine life, though most never see its impact directly. Ocean Conservation Namibia, a small family-run group, realized the wildlife they depend on was suffering from this hidden threat. Naude Dreyer, his wife Katja, and friends rescue and disentangle sea lions along their beaches. Their work highlights the urgent need for awareness and action, showing the devastating effects of ocean trash and the difference compassion and commitment can make.
