These birds look similar to Bare-Eyed Cockatoos. They are relatively small at about 10 inches in length. They have white feathers with some yellow under the tail and wings. Goffins are known to be very engergetic and inquisitive birds and may be a bit more independent than some of the other birds of this species. Their lifespan is generally around 40 or 50 years. They are native to the Tanimbar Islands of Indonesia. They are very seriously endangered and possibly even extinct in the wild due to widespread trapping and destruction of their native habitat by the timber industry.
