- She gracefully leaped into the air and came down with a huge splash, just as she had done countless times before when she performed at the Miami Seaquarium before cheering crowds over the past five decades.
Rest in peace Toki. I’m so sorry you didn’t get to go back home like you deserved
Set her free, and close this place down
Correction: TEAR IT DOWN WHILE POSTING THE VIDEO TO SEAWORLD!!!
is the Precious one going to be returned to Heaven
@@scottestabrooks7276 If you mean back to her home waters in Puget Sound, then YES!!!! She's going to be prepared to accept going into a sling harness for her eventual transport home.

@@scottestabrooks7276 Hey there.
Whales shouldn't be held like that EVER, it's sick. They're miserable.
This poor girl is still in the same freaking place. Nothing has been done.
😔
Months or even years? Please. These people have played enough games with this animals life. Send her home NOW! Didn't take years when you kidnapped her in the first place.
Thank you for your competent comment!
These people need to go to jail for that
They killed her!
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
It's criminal what they did to her. I'm so sorry Tokitae that you never had the chance to return home to your Ohana. You deserved so much better. Stolen from your pod and abused by selfish and greedy humans for years. Rip beautiful girl, you're now completely free, they can no longer torture you anymore.
thank u gen
My question is why did they take 50 years to do this?
I thought it was for sure she was going to be released? Now it sounds like the owner is thinking about having her come back after the repairs...
nope, he's going to fill the tank with other poor dolphins and belugas after she's done. dolphins are his main thing, he owns 4 dolphin parks in Mexico now.
Her family is never going to stop looking for her. ❤ My God, I hate these people.
Her family is all dead
@@LeDoctoerNo, the mother is still alive (I think she's 95 years old)
@@daryadarya6554 L25 is not her mother
@@daryadarya6554 Ocean Sun is 97 years old.
She passed away today 😢
She should be with her mom because they found her and her grandmother with here other family members
Finally the truth surfaces. Thank you Louis & Local 10 news.
A couple years,!!!??? Oh hell no!! Hurry up please!!!
Not fast enough. Something just doesn't sit right with me about her dying while they had the sling in her tank with these big talks of moving her.
Swim free pretty girl. Your home now. The waters in heaven are endless. Enjoy✝️
Stop the endless discussions and set her free ! ✌
Rip tokia - Lolita.
Free Toki now !
Get it done
Please make it happen for her asap x bless her and all who are on her side 110% ❤
It's sadly too late now.
Realease her 😡
This should be illegal and these owners show be locked up!
It made me sad that this beautiful cetecean had died 😢😢
Get every animal out
Did you see the flamingos too 😢😢
This aged like sour milk.
they were too late
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Like wow enough is enough already their is always talk but no action is being done yet why not it's a shame how people treat wild animals these days killer whales are my favorite animal it breaks my heart to see such a intelligent animal being in a small tank the size of a bath tub she belongs in the waters of her homeland she has waited this long to reunited with her family for 54 years she belongs with her family set toiktae free she has ever right to be sense the day she was born ❤😢
They need to let her out NOW! This is infuriating
Exactly! Times went by for endless discussions ! It's terrible!
@@daryadarya6554 She's being prepped to go home as we speak.
If they fix that pool they are not going to want to send her back to the ocean
They actually are!
I am so glad she has improved health. Hopefully She will be moved out of there soon. Stop going and supporting sea-world’s shows and parks, it is something that should be ilegal.
Its good to see that her care and release is supported now, but it seems only because he wants to rebuild the facility. Whatever it takes is great, but thsnk god its happening.
Who could think this is anything other than HORRENDOUS?
Does anyone have any i insight they could provide me with I imagine it’s hard or limited date for this but I do have a genuine wonder of how sea animals who spent most of their lives in captivity do and adjust once released?
Was there a dolphin in there with her ?
Rip ❤
90 days!!
Best of lucks Tolitae! Go and have a nice free life for once!
I am so glad something is being done to have her that much closer to going home.
Yes because they found her mom and grandma and here other family members that wear she need to be with they should had never tooking her in the first place
Stop this attrocity!!!!!! No more whales in the stupid bath tubs anymore
Look how close she is to the ocean . Send her back
What a beautiful animal ❤❤💔
Toki deserved so much better than a concrete bucket .
All this animal torture facilities should just be closed, free them all
What about salt water
💀
Keeping a largest intelligent mammal on earth like whale in captivity for so long is inhumane. Move to a sanctuary ASAP, then set free to unite with the whale family if possible.
I'm so sad...😢😢😢
Yayyyyy 🧸🧸🧸🧸🧸
Free the whales .…..
So sad release to ocean
She dieda week ago in that tank. 😢😢😢
Let's start by calling her by name, not her stage name. It's orca, not k*ller whale
Why didnt they at least put her in Sea World. Sucks but would have been better.
Poor baby 🛋🛋🛋🛋🛋🛋
I would say she should be released into the ocean but could she survive on her own? I don't know anything about captive killer whales released into the wild after being in captivity all their lives. Can they take up with a wild pod? Would she be accepted? Does anyone know? I'm just curious.
There were cases of killer whales released. The first case was releasing young orcas that were held captive for only a few weeks. They successfully rejoined a pod and now thrive in the wild.
There was another case. Keiko, a male orca, who was captured as a calf and raised by humans just like Lolita. He was 30 when they decided to rehabilitate and release him. He never joined a pod, never tried to hunt. He wanted to be around humans and always approached boats so that he could get the attention and free food he was used to. Some people suggested killing him for that. In the end, Keiko died from an illness, because there was no veterinary care in the ocean.
Lolita is a different story. She's 20 years older than Keiko, but she has better health and a better chance if her rehabilitation is done right. She might survive.
As for joining a pod, an old female is unlikely to be accepted.
The plan isn't to release her it's to retire her into a Sea Pen which is a netted enclosure with 24/7 human support. The nets will be large enough for small fish to swim in and out but not her and it would allow her to communicate and interact with her pod the L-pod. Now if she decides SHE wants to take the next step into the wild that could happen but it will be 100% up to her.
@@forevernord One big difference between her and Keiko is he was 2 when he was captured and she was 4 meaning she had the additional time to learn proper pod behavior and her pod's dialect. They never were completely sure which pod Keiko had been taken from either and they know for certain which pod she was taken from.
@@samcath7830 Keiko was a male whale. I don't think you should try to convince me he was better in the ocean when you don't even know Keiko's gender.
@@samcath7830he was only out of his sea pen (AKA "out in the wild") for a few months before he died. He didn't survive long at all once he was released and wasn't receiving veterinary care or food from humans
Rip😢
I don’t care what anyone says,she was never going to be released from that company,they just made it look that way! I KNOW THEY KILLED THAT BEAUTIFUL BABY!!
She looked so good here I think they killed her
Why sea pen release her in the ocean
Why are you human misunderstood???
Wilde or not but the animals are free!!! 😢 Could be! I am si sad 😭
Arrest the owners!!! No more shows for any swa animal!!!!
They killed her.. cant change my mind
Inhumanity
❤
We don’t have 1 good reason to ever capture these creatures. Keep your hands off, unacceptable.
these are all kies
Bycott these shows stop taking yout kinds to this nonsense
Let her free you cruel mone crooks
The truth is moving her into the wild will kill her this is a death sentence for an animal that has been kept in captivity for over fifty some years she needs to be moved to a bigger tank you cannot release this animal into the wild she was lost her pod which is sad. These animals should never have been put in captivity in the first place but moving this one after so many years is a death that sentence for her and these people do not care.
Looks like it was a death sentence in that tiny fish bowl too. Poor Tokitae. I wish she could have at least seen her mother Ocean Sunset one last time and felt the natural current of the Salish sea on her skin one last time. A sea pen would have been a million times better.
Inhumane conditions life.. God
