Lolita Used to Have a Tank-Mate & His Story is Heartbreaking

Lolita the orca is imprisoned at the Miami Seaquarium in the smallest orca tank in North America. Wild members of her family are highly social, stay with their mothers for life, travel up to 100 miles per day, and dive hundreds of feet below the water’s surface. Lolita hasn’t seen another orca since her tankmate, Hugo, died after ramming his head into the side of the tank more than 35 years ago. Subscribe: PETA Saves: PETA: FAQs:
