Between 1964 and 1976, dozens of these now-endangered orcas were torn from their home and sent to marine parks around the globe. Just over a decade later, all but one had died. This lone survivor is Tokitae, also known as Lolita, and she's spent most of her life performing at the Miami Seaquarium. For twenty years, the Orca Network has called for her release, and now the indigenous' Lummi Nation, People of the Sea, have joined the fight. Author Sandra Pollard chronicles the extraordinary effort to bring Tokitae home. 650 0 $a Killer whale $z Puget Sound. $z Puget Sound. 650 0 $a Killer whale. 651 0 $a Puget Sound (Wash.) $x History. 700 1 $a Neiwert, David, $e writer of foreword. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190806080643.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4C0D2288875711E9A56C064497128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
