16,425 Days a Slave!

Lolita at the Miami Seaquarium since 1970

Ian W. McGee


Update: Thank you fellow activists for collecting and sending us ten thousand letters for Tokitae/Lolita’s freedom which have been delivered on your behalf to decision-makers of the Miami Seaquarium!

TWO options for your letter to Palace Entertainment:

1) It would be most effective, and we encourage and will very gladly accept any personalized letters from individuals or groups to include in our package to Palace Entertainment.

If you wish to write your own letters, please print and send your own personalized letters to:

Origami Whales Project
P.O. Box 864
Carpinteria, CA 93014
USA

It's best to use your own words. All are welcome to copy & paste any or all portions of our sample letter, then edit as you wish with your additional comments. And please remember to be POLITE for her freedom. We all LOVE Lolita, and can help her through LOVE & POSITIVE VISIONS!

Our goal to deliver a large package containing 16,425 printed letters to commemorate the 16,425 days that Lolita has been kept in captivity may seem ambitious. But together we can do this.

 

Tell Palace Entertainment (owners of the Miami Seaquarium) that it is time for Lolita to be granted retirement to her home waters.
