I don't think Black Cockatoos are on the export list because of their scarcity.



They would be thousands in other countries.

White cockatoos are thousands of dollars here too.

The feature of the Red Tailed Black Cockatoos is their tail when they fly off...



This is a female... Males have sold red tails.

Blacks would double that and then some.



They have a lot more character and fun appeal.

I'll see if I can get a better tail shot later...

They have sweet natures too.

I wonder why the only type of cockatoo pets you see in Canada are sulphur crested cockatoos..



Probably just their appearance.

caskur

Maybe these days you cannot export our black cockies and decades back, Sulphur Crested were exported and North Amercias population grew from there. OR, our birds were smuggled out and sold on the black market.
