A video captured by the owners of a cafe show ranger Dale Millar using a prong to lead it back into the ocean.The Advertiser reported about 40 people, from a town of 600, gathered to watch Millar try and coach the confused animal back into water.The seal snaps at Millar several times and tries to lunge at him, with Millar at one point even losing grip of his stick. Despite some initial resistance, the mammal eventually returned home. Credit: Periwinkles Cafe Port MacDonnell via Storyful
