Lolita

[Name] Lolita
[Date of capture] 08.August.70
[Currently resides] Miami Seaquarium
[Previously held at] -
[Parents] -
[Offspring] Potentially unsuccessful pregnancies

Lolita was a member of the Penn Cove round-up in 1970. Originally called Tokitae, upon her arrival, she was separated from Hugo* who already lived there. Hugo* would vocalize to her, which the owner's wife described as Hugo* calling to his "Lolita" and the name stuck. Lolita and Hugo* lived together in the tiny show pool, until is death in 1980. She has since spent 40 years without the companion of another orca. She now lives with Pacific white-sided dolphins and together they perform regularly in shows. The Miami Seaquarium trainers used to work in the water with Lolita during shows, but this was banned by OSHA in June 2015, which was quite a few years after SeaWorld's ban, following Dawn Brancheau's death.
Lolita has been the center of many animal rights campaigns, in attempt to have Lolita released or moved from her tiny pool, but alas none have had any success. It is remarkable how she has managed to live for so many years in such a small tank, whilst other's have gone to an early death.

Kiska was caught in Icelandic waters and sent to an aquarium there. Her stay was short and she was moved to MarineLand Canada with an unnamed female*. She has lived at MarineLand since 1981, and has lived with many tank mates. They lived together in King Wardolf's Theater before moving to Friendship Cove when it opened in 1998. She has given birth to many calves, but unfortunately none are alive to date. A male from SeaWorld Florida, Ikaika, joined the family in 2006, but when all of Kiska's family passed away it was just the two of them. They shared a pool together for 5 years before Ikaika was moved to SeaWorld San Diego, as he was only on loan. Since 2011, Kiska has lived alone without any tank mate whatsoever, not even another cetacean. She is the world's most solitary captive orca.

Ikaika was staying at MarineLand as a loan for beluga whales from SeaWorld, and there was a court case for SeaWorld to get him back. In 2011 he was transferred to SeaWorld California, as a replacement for Sumar* and he has lived there since.

Corky 2

[Name] Corky 2
[Date of capture] 11.Dec.69
[Currently resides] SeaWorld California
[Previously held at] Marineland of the Pacific
[Parents] -
[Offspring] Kiva*, "Spooky"*, 5 Unsuccessful*

Corky 2 is one of the eldest orcas in captivity, estimate to be 55 years old. She shared her name with another orca called Corky* at Marineland of the Pacific, who shortly died after Corky 2's arrival. Corky 2 lived with Orky 2* and the two were very close. Corky 2 had several pregnancies and calves, but none lived for very long. Corky 2's longest living calf was Kiva*, who lived for 46 days. An explanation to the death of the calves is that the shape of the pool (circular) prevented Corky from being able to nurse effectively.
In December 1986, SeaWorld California bought the animals of Marineland. At Corky 2's new Californian home she suffered problems with the other females, as there were issues of dominance. She was involved in a conflict with Kandu 5*, where Kandu 5* charged Corky, severed an artery and bled to death. Over the years she has played the role of surrogate mother to many of the orcas when they were young. She is a reliable performer in the shows.

She lived there for 2 years, before moving back to her first SeaWorld home in California, and has lived there since 1990 permanently. At SeaWorld California gave birth to all 4 of her calves. She was the first orca to successfully produce a calf via artificial insemination. In 1999 and 2006, Kasatka had been involved in incidences of aggression towards trainers, but luckily none of them ended fatally. She was euthanized in 2017 after a long battle with a bacterial infection, which saw her health and skin condition deteriorate.

Nakai was the first captive killer whale to be born via artificial insemination. He never met his father, Tilikum*, who resided at SeaWorld Florida. After the birth of his half-sister, Kohana, the two became great playmates. When Kohana was moved to Florida, Nakai spent most of his time playing with Sumar*, and younger half-sister Kalia. Nakai was a playful and curious youngster, often interacting with park guests.
In September 2012, Nakai suffered a horrific injury on his chin, resulting in a massive chunk of his flesh removed down to the bone. It is said he caught himself on a gate, however it was possibly the result of an aggressive incident between tank mates. Luckily he managed to recover from this.

Kalia

[Name] Kalia
[Date of birth] 21.Dec.04
[Currently resides] SeaWorld California
[Previously held at] -
[Parents] Keet and Kasatka*
[Offspring] Amaya

Kalia was born at SeaWorld California in December 2004. She was the parks "baby" for many years, until Kasatka* gave birth to her half-brother, Makani, in February 2013. Kalia showed great advancement in learning at a young age, and was an interactive youngster who loved playing with her older half-brother Nakai and Sumar*.
SeaWorld impregnated Kalia, via Ulises' semen, at a young age, which caused public outcry. She gave birth to a daughter on the 2nd December 2014, before Kalia's 10th birthday. Kalia had support from her mother and brother, Nakai, and nurtured Amaya well, despite her young age.

Katina

[Currently resides] SeaWorld Florida
[Previously held at] MarineLand Canada, SeaWorld Ohio, SeaWorld California
[Parents] Unknown
[Offspring] Kalina*, Katerina*, Taku*, Unna*, Ikaika, Nalani, Makaio

Katina was captured in Iceland alongside Betty* and an unnamed male*. She was moved to Marineland Canada but only lived there for 8 months. Katina was then moved to SeaWorld where she was sent between the California and Ohio parks, depending on season. She moved to SeaWorld Florida, and gave birth to Kalina*, the first successful orca born in captivity. Katina is a very good mother, but developed an unhealthy attachment to her son Taku*. Katina's sixth pregnancy was fathered by her son Taku*, making Nalani a product of incest. Despite this, Nalani appears to be healthy. She was considered to be the dominant female at the Florida park, however Katina gained a tear at the base of her dorsal, as a result of an altercation between her and Trua in 2018. As a result the park separated the orcas into two groups (Katina, Nalani and Makaio; Kayla, Trua and Malia). 

Tilikum*

[Name] Tilikum*
[Date of capture] Oct.83
[Date of death] 06.Jan.17
[Resided at] SeaLand Pacific, SeaWorld Florida
[Parents] Unknown
[Offspring] Kyuquot, Nyar*, Taku*, Unna*, Sumar*, Tuar, Tekoa, Nakai, Kohana, Ikaika, Skyla*, Malia, Sakari, Makaio and 7 Unsuccessful*

Tilikum was an adult bull orca, who became one of the most famous killer whales in captive history. He was incredibly large and fathered most of SeaWorld's calves since the 1990's, including being the first male whose genes were used to artificially inseminate females at other SraWorld parks.
Tilikum's story begins with his capture in October 1983 off Icelandic waters. He was captured alongside Samoa* and Nandu* but was sent to SeaLand Pacific in Canada. He joined Haida 2* and Nootka 4*, who were dominant over him. The three whales were involved in an incident that resulted in the death of a young student/part time trainer, Keltie Byrne. The park eventually closed, and Tilikum was sent to SeaWorld Florida in January 1992.
Tilikum lived at SeaWorld until his death. He used to star in the shows as the big splash finale. He was kept isolated from most of the females who used to be aggressive towards him, except for Taima*, who he spent time with until she passed away.
Unfortunately Tilikum was involved in two other tragedies whilst at SeaWorld. In 1999, Daniel Duke's body was found draped over Tilikum's body, who had obviously jumped into Tilikum's tank after the park had closed.
The most well known event, was the death of trainer Dawn Brancheau in February 2010. He pulled Dawn into the water during a Dine With Shamu session and killed her, which lead to all waterworks with killer whales being stopped globally. These events are the main subject of the film Blackfish (2013) which sparked a public opposition to keeping killer whales in captivity, and causing attendance to SeaWorld to drop significantly. Tilikum passed away in January 2017 after a long battle with ill health.

After the deaths of the older females at the park, Kayla became the dominant female. In 2005, Kayla gave birth to her daughter, Halyn*, however she rejected her and Halyn* was hand-reared by trainers. When Halyn* was 7 months old, mother and daughter were re-introduced, and the pair seemed to get along much better than after birth. In November 2006, Kayla was moved to SeaWorld Florida, leaving her daughter behind who later passed away. Kayla lived at SeaWorld Florida for over 12 years before she passed away in early 2019.

Takara was born at SeaWorld California. She was a playful youngster who loved attention. At the age of 10 she gave birth to her first daughter, Kohana, who was born via artificial insemination. Despite the unnatural form of conception, Takara became a fantastic mother, probably due to the close relationship she shared with her own mother, Kasatka*. In 2004, Takara and Kohana were moved to SeaWorld Florida. Takara got along with the other whales, and gave birth to a son in 2005. After four years in Florida, she was moved to Texas and managed to assert herself as dominant female, largely due to being raised by a dominant ranking mother.

Freya was captured in Iceland with Kim 2*, Nootka 4*, Haida 2* and an unnamed male*. Kim* and Freya were sent to Marineland France. Freya had a very identifiable white mark on the left side of her body, which was caused by an X-ray, due to a skin disease she had. It is possible that the X-ray affected her reproductive system, which is why she had so many stillbirths. As Valentin was her only surviving offspring, she was very close with him, during their lives at the park. Freya was the dominant female at the park, and had a tendency to be aggressive, even towards her trainers at times. She passed away in June 2015, after a battling with an illness for several months.
