The Philippine Eagle Foundation (PEF) announces that “Sawaga-Dalwangan,” a critically endangered Philippine eagle rescued in Bukidnon earlier in July, dies while undergoing rehabilitation at the Philippine Eagle Center. Multiple reports cite the foundation’s statement, saying the bird dies after being kept in intensive care and rehabilitation following the rescue. The eagle was initially rescued on July 3 after an incident described as a monkey attack. After rescue, PEF says the eagle shows early signs of recovery, including becoming stronger and more alert, eating on her own, and responding to treatment. Those observations were used for earlier recovery updates. However, the foundation later reports that the eagle dies during the rehabilitation period. The reports do not provide additional details on the specific cause of death beyond the fact that it occurs while the bird is receiving care at the center. The death marks another setback for a species already classified as critically endangered.
