Lolita's care Since the 1960s, activists have been pleading for Lolita to retire from performing tricks at Miami Seaquarium. They also have urged her to be relocated into an open-water pen. After the 1993 film Free Willy sparked public outrage over the returning of orca Keiko into the wild, those who fought for her hoped that Lolita would suffer a similar fate. Unfortunately, she didn't get a chance to return to the ocean. Lolita's captors, also known as the Dolphin Company, have ignored the advice of a veterinarian and continue to put her in danger. They cause harm to her health by forcing her to perform for tourists. They over-exert her with high-speed circles and head-first diving, which exposes her to chlorine and cause her to lose weight. They also place her in a tank one-and-a-half times smaller than her natural habitat. In 2022, a new owner of Miami Seaquarium, who calls Lolita an aunt of theirs, pledged to develop an arrangement with a group of Lolita supporters, known as Friends of Toki, and the Lummi Tribe to transport her eventually to open water. Click To See More included a sanctuary pen in Washington's westcoast where she could live the rest of her days, receive human care, and be monitored by scientists. The sanctuary pen could be hundreds of times larger than her Miami home and surrounded by the actual ocean not an empty concrete tank. If the plan was successful, Lolita (also called Tokitae or Toki) could be alive. In the wild killer whales are highly social animals that are bonded with family members until they die. Lolita has lived isolated at Seaquarium for the past 40 years. Activists from across the country have called for Lolita's departure from Seaquarium and her eventual release into the wild.

The Miami Seaquarium has released a series of updates about Lolita's health, and her status but there are still questions.

According to the latest update on the Friends of Lolita site, she consumes 115 pounds of salmon every day, along with capelin, herring, and squid. Miami Seaquarium, and in particular Lolita, has been critiqued for the quality of the food they feed to killer whales. The orca, who was 57 years old, was rescued from Puget Sound in 1970, and even though the species is threatened in the wild, she lives in an aquarium that many say is too small for her. Lolita's Health Lolita is gorgeous, but her health continues to decline. Animal welfare groups have expressed concerns about her and want to see that she is released back into nature. Lolita who has been living at the Miami Seaquarium in Miami since 1970, has been a tourist attraction for a long time. She has been fighting chronic illnesses and an infection that has left her in a fragile state. The Dolphin Company, which now owns the Miami Seaquarium and is owned by the Dolphin Company has not provided any information about Lolita's condition. Friends of Toki, a non-profit group, has posted monthly updates on her health and well being on their website. These updates reveal that Toki is aging quickly and that her health has declined. Since her captor doesn't have to disclose the information, it's unclear what health issue the orca is suffering from. However, a repository of necropsies from Sea World that was created by the Orca Project shows that kidney disease is often a factor in the death of orcas kept in captivity. Despite these ongoing health concerns, many are hopeful that Lolita could be closer to a life in the wild than before. Seaquarium's new owner Seaquarium has stated his commitment to move the whale out of her tank into her native waters in the Pacific. After years of public pressure from PETA and others and the Miami Seaquarium has finally released Lolita to a sanctuary at the sea and she will be able to go swimming in the deep sea, perhaps even being reunited with her mother orca. Sadly the plans came too late for the beloved whale, who died on Friday of what was believed to be a kidney issue.
