Release Lolita from Miami Seaquarium


Release Lolita from Miami Seaquarium
The Issue
Release Lolita the Orca from captivity. She once had a companion in her shows known as Hugo. In 1980 he reportedly committed suicide by repeatedly ramming his head into the sides of his tank. These animals have personality, they’re as intelligent as a 13 year old human being, imagine locking a 13 year old in a cage... Miami Seaquarium did not even bother disposing Hugo’s body correctly. Rather than cremating him or burying him they lifted him with a crane and set his body at a local trash dump. Help save Lolita from the same fate as Hugo.
