Miami Housewife Adriana De Moura Poses Nude, Protests Killer Whale's Confinement

Adriana de Moura has taken it all off, posing nude in a series of provocative photos shot in a bathtub.
The Real Housewives of Miami star is protesting the living conditions of Lolita, a killer whale at the Miami Seaquarium.
"Could you live in a bathtub for 40 years?" Adriana asks.
The pics were taken as part of a PETA campaign to get the orca named Lolita released to an ocean sanctuary.
According to PETA, Lolita was captured in the wild as a baby in 1970. She is the Seaquarium's sole orca, meaning the highly social animal has no interaction with her species, and hasn't since 1980.

The Seaquarium's orca tank is also the smallest in the U.S., according to the animal rights organization.
The Brazilian-born de Moura says that marine mammals aren't permitted to be kept in aquariums for entertainment purposes in her native country, and is lobbying to make the same true in the U.S.
