| | Cockatoos |
 | | The oldest recorded Salmon-crested Cockatoo at the London Zoo was 80, the San Diego Zoo recorded an 85-year-old, and 125 years recorded by a citizen caregiver in England. |
 | | Although listed as CITES Appendix I since 1989, many Salmon-crested cockatoos are still illegally traded via Singapore, sold at markets on the streets in Indonesia, sold to the pet trade by locals, and sold for use in ceremonies. |
 | | The total wild population of Moluccan Cockatoos is estimated by Project Bird Watch at 2,000 (figures from 1997), 8,000 by UNEP-WCMC, and thought to range between 62,000 and 195,000 by Birdlife International although most experts consider 2,000 far too low and 195,000 far too high. |
