In the video, a person is seen holding a turtle in their hands. The turtle is being held over a body of water, and the person is gently lowering the turtle into the water. The turtle appears to be a large species, with a hard shell and a long neck. The person's hands are visible, and they seem to be wearing a dark-colored shirt. The water is clear, and the turtle's movements are slow and deliberate as it enters the water. The video captures the moment of release, with the turtle's head and front legs visible as it begins to swim away.
