Productinformation

Cacatua leadbeateri / Lophochroa leadbeateri

Origin: Australia

This striking cockatoo has white feathers on the wings, back, tail and belly that changes to a soft salmon pink colour towards the neck. The crest has bright red, yellow and white colours. BirdLife Australia officially renamed Major Mitchell's cockatoo back to pink cockatoo in 2023, due to Mitchell's involvement in the massacre of Aboriginal people at Mount Dispersion and a general trend to make species names more culturally inclusive. One of the most famous pink cockatoes, "Cookie", was a resident of the Brookfield Zoo, in the Chicago area. Cookie had been a permanent resident of the park since its opening in 1934 and lived to be as old as 83.
