The Earth Island Institute Philippines raised their alarm on the possible extinction of Irrawaddy dolphins in Negros, after a dolphin calf was found dead in the coastal waters of Pulupandan, Negros Occidental on Sept 25, 2020. The group is an international organization that promotes awareness, grassroots environmentalism for the protection, conservation, and restoration of nature, focusing on marine wildlife. The group said marine scientists led by the University of St. La Salle (USLS) here are still in the process of identifying the cause of death of an Irrawaddy dolphin.
