One of Brookfield Zoo's animals is celebrating a special birthday today. Cookie, the zoo's Major Mitchell's cockatoo, is 81 years old today. He is the only animal at Brookfield Zoo that is from the original collection, dating back to the zoo's opening in 1934. Because of his advanced age and several medical maladies, including osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, Cookie has been enjoying himself off exhibit with his keepers since September 2009. He receives plenty of attention and the animal care staff provide him with a variety of enrichment items to occupy his time and stimulate his mind. Additionally, on warmer days, keepers are able to bring him outdoors.
