Hundreds gathered in Miami to show their support for Lolita, the Miami Seaquarium orca who lives her life in a tank just 35 feet wide and 80 feet across. Protestors demanded her freedom, and vowed to continue to fight until she is returned to her home in Puget Sound with the rest of her family, which includes her 85-year-old mother.
