* Deep underwater near a shipwreck to the northeast of Fort Strong.
* On the dock directly in front of the entrance to Hester's Consumer Robotics, a small dolphish is found in a bathtub.
* An intact corpse can be found beached just south of Kingsport Lighthouse.
* On a platform covered in debris in Libertalia.
* In front of the boardwalk at Revere Beach station.

* On the beach in front of Sandy Coves Convalescent Home.
* Scattered throughout the docks behind the Shamrock Taphouse.
* Along the northern coast of Spectacle Island.

* Nine dead creatures (one of which has a human skeleton sticking out of its ruptured stomach and spawns a random melee weapon) can be found on a beach west of wreck of the FMS Northern Star.

==Behind the scenes==
* The creature was designed by Gabrielle Adams and created in ZBrush. It is referred to as the "exploding whale" in her ArtStation portfolio. In game files, one render is named dolphin, and the texture is labeled whale. It was first canonically named in-game with the addition of the mounted dolphish head to Fallout 76 in The Big Score.
* The dolphish found on the boat west of Beantown Brewery is a reference to the film Jaws. 
* The dolphish is seen in the animation for the cut quest 20 Leagues Under the Sea.
