What is the lifespan of a cockatoo?

Cockatoos have a long lifespan and can live for several decades. The average lifespan of a cockatoo varies depending on the species.

- Small cockatoo species, such as the cockatiel, have an average lifespan of 15-20 years.

- Medium-sized cockatoo species, such as the umbrella cockatoo, have an average lifespan of 30-40 years.

- Large cockatoo species, such as the palm cockatoo, have an average lifespan of 50-60 years.

However, it's important to note that these are just average lifespans, and individual cockatoos may live shorter or longer than these ranges. Proper care, diet, and veterinary care can contribute to a longer lifespan for cockatoos.
