Lolita's Care

For a long time activists have been lobbying for the retirement of Lolita's tricks at Miami Seaquarium and relocation to an open sea pen. After the 1993 movie Free Willy sparked public outrage over the reintegration of orca Keiko into the wild, activists believed that Lolita would have a similar fate. Unfortunately, she didn't get the chance to return to the ocean.

Lolita's captors - the Dolphin Company - have ignored veterinary advice and continue to put her in danger. They cause harm to her health by requiring her to perform for tourists. They overexert her with high-speed circle and head-first diving, expose her to chlorine and cause her to lose weight. Additionally, they place her in an incredibly small tank that is just one-and-a-half times the size of her natural habitat.

Fortunately, in 2022, the new owner of Miami Seaquarium pledged to work with an organization of Lolita advocates known as Friends of Toki and the Lummi tribe, who consider her a relative and plan to eventually transport her to the open water. The plan would have included a sanctuary located on the west coast of Washington in which she could reside for the rest of her life, receive human medical care and be monitored by researchers. The sanctuary pen will be hundreds of times bigger than her Miami home and be surrounded by the ocean itself and not an empty concrete tank.

If the plan was successful, Lolita (also called Tokitae or Toki) could be alive. In the wild, killers whales are social animals and bond with their families until they die. Lolita has been living in a secluded area at Seaquarium for the past 40 years. Many activists across the country, including Ric O'Barry (former Flipper trainer), Empty The Tanks and Orca Network, have called for her departure from Seaquarium's stage, and her eventual release into the wild.

A blue and golden macaw is a charming companion, but also smart. They are known to quickly learn new words and tricks and they are extremely adaptable. This bird is a fantastic choice for those who are just beginning their journey into avian friendship.

This bird is also very social and easily bonds with her family members. Macaws with gold and blue colors often have loud vocalizations, including "flock calls," which is part of their natural behavior. They may even be able to chew and squabble, especially when they are annoyed or bored. It is essential for prospective pet owners to keep in mind that this kind of behavior is normal and must be expected.

The Miami Seaquarium has released a series of updates about Lolita's health and status but there are still questions. Akromas and others who have been trained or supervised Lolita's health at some point are concerned about her diet. The most recent update on the Friends of Lolita website states that she is eating 115 pounds of salmon, herring, capelin, and squid every day.

The Miami Seaquarium has been criticized for the quality of the food they provide their killer whales, especially Lolita. The 57-year-old orca was rescued from Puget Sound in 1970, and while the species is threatened in the wild, she lives in an aquarium that many consider too small for her.

Lolita's Health

Lolita is gorgeous, but her health continues to decline. Animal welfare groups have expressed concern about her and would like to see that she is returned to the wild. Lolita, who has lived at the Miami Seaquarium in Miami since 1970 was a popular tourist attraction for a long time. She has suffered from chronic illnesses and a crippling disease that has left her in a vulnerable state.

The Miami Seaquarium which is now owned by the Dolphin Company, has not disclosed information about Lolita's current health. However, the non-profit group Friends of Toki has provided monthly updates on her health and well-being on their website. These updates indicate that Toki is ageing rapidly and that her health has declined.

It is not known what health issues are plaguing the orca, as her captor isn't required to divulge this information. The Orca Project created a repository of necropsies taken from Sea World. This shows that kidney disease often plays an important part in the deaths of orcas in captivity.

Despite the ongoing health concerns of Lolita many are hopeful that she may be closer than ever to an unspoiled life. The new owner of the Seaquarium has made a pledge to moving the whale out of her tank and into her home waters in the Pacific.

After years of pressure from PETA and others, the Miami Seaquarium has finally released Lolita to a sanctuary at the sea, where she can take a deep dive in the ocean and perhaps be being reunited with her mother orca. Unfortunately, these plans came too late for the beloved whale who died on Friday of what was believed to be a kidney issue.
