Description

In this episode of the Animals To The Max Podcast, I chat with author and former Seaworld Trainer, Mark Simmons. We discuss Lolita, the famous Killer Whale who has been living at the Miami Seaquarium for 50 years, and how she has been making headlines, as the Miami Seaquarium has announced they plan to return her to the wild in the Pacific Northwest. Lolita, whose health has been failing since December, is no longer on public display or doing shows. Is this a publicity stunt? Is returning her the best option? Will she survive the long move? Is this ethical? We discuss it all in this week’s podcast! Listen to the After-Show!
