Truth4Toki’s only focus is the wellbeing of Toki and the dolphins. We love people calling attention to our hashtag #truth4toki, because we know that we are getting the word out, but we will remain unfazed by personal attacks.
These animals are older, currently battling a variety of illnesses and have weakened immune systems. We believe that even the sheer stress of moving them could push their fragile immune systems over the edge and result in their death. https://t.co/djv0CEdV3e
DID YOU KNOW THE AVERAGE LIFESPAN OF A FEMALE KILLER WHALE IS 50?
TOKI IS ESTIMATED AT 58!
THE AVERAGE LIFESPAN OF PACIFIC WHITE-SIDED DOLPHINS IS 36-40!
LOKE & LII ARE ESTIMATED AT 40!
Toki, Lii and Loke are surpassing the average lifespan for their species which a true testament to their past caretaker’s dedication and love. All three of these animals are past the average lifespan for wild individuals.

For those of you asking where we were when the USDA report came out regarding the conditions of the animals: In June 2022, we reached out to Miami-Dade Mayor Daniela Levine-Cava. She is also responsible for the
@d_delphinidae As everyone knows, it takes time to speak to any member of government. But us knowing @TheDolphinCo_ had no idea how to care for an orca, and really did not want an orca, we were able to discuss the CARE she would receive from them with @MayorDaniella
@PrairieOrca After the report we reached out to @MayorDaniella to offer our assistance/expertise on assessing the CARE she was receiving knowing @TheDolphinCo_ did not know about orcas. NOT for assurance she was staying there. How she is cared for was our concern.
