Salmon-crested Cockatoo
		
		Cacatua moluccensis
	
	
		Cockatoos are noisy, flocking parrots that inhabit Australia and island 
		countries to its north and west. Loud squawking enables them to 
		communicate in thick forests. The salmon-crested cockatoo is a popular 
		bird in captivity, which is one reason its populations are declining as 
		birds are captured from the wild for the pet trade.
