'''Hugo''' was an orca who was captured from the wild and captive at the [[Miami Seaquarium]]. | |||
In February 1968, twelve orcas were captured in Vaughn Bay. A young male was reportedly the only one that was kept. He was held at the Seattle Marine Aquarium before being bought by the [[Miami Seaquarium]] where he was housed in a small pool that is now used for housing manatees. | In February 1968, twelve orcas were captured in Vaughn Bay.
