1. Scotland has one residential pod of orcas. There were 9 orcas in the West Coast Community pod. However, a couple of years ago one of the females, Lulu, was sadly found washed up on this beach here in Tiree. She had signs of entanglement & her PCB levels were off the chart.

50 years ago today this orca was taken from the wild & placed into a tiny tank. Think what you’ve done/where you’ve been the last 10 years. She’s been in this space. What have you seen over the last 20 years? She’s only seen this tank. Over the last 30 years? 40? 50? Her view ⬇️

PLEASE RT spare a moment to think of Lolita - brutally snatched from her family 50 years ago today and languishing in the pathetic and grotty Miami Seaquarium. @_AnimalAdvocate @jeffrey_ventre @OrcaSOS @willtravers @SunnysidePri @philip_ciwf @TheOrcaProject @Sam10k #EmptyTheTanks
