The Truth is Emerging
August 29, 2023
Being fed rotten fish was not the only thing that stunk.
Slowly, but surely the truth is coming out about the tragic life and death of Tokitae.
Lots of talk, lots of hype, yet not a single permit was applied for. Lots of promises, but the conditions of her pool were deplorable and her diet was unhealthy.
A government deadline to address the conditions of her pool expired the day before Tokitae died. The repairs were never made and her death most likely means there will be no fines. Very convenient.
This sordid affair needs to be investigated deeply and thoroughly. How much money did Friends of Toki raise and what was it spent on? What happened to the five million Jim Irsay is said to have donated? Pritam Singh pledged a million. How much did he spend on Toki’s health and welfare and Eduardo Albor, the largest dolphin slave owner on the planet, may be a lot of things, but the one thing he is not, is a person who has compassionate for the welfare of his cetacean prisoners.
The money trail needs to be followed.
Toki, now stripped down to her skeleton, will carry on her forced display for profit show. Will the traveling Orca charade now move on to Corky?
The exploitation never ends.
