The video shows that an instructor started by dipping the baby seal by the tail end into the water.
The seal seemed somewhat nervous and looked up at the instructor for some reassurance. Gradually, the seal was dropped into the pool as it started moving with confidence. After a while, the instructor removed his hand from the seal as it began to swim all by itself. Watch the video here.
