Customs officials discovered more than 20 cockatoos stuffed into plastic bottles at a port in Indonesia.
According to CNN, it is not the first time that smuggled animals have been found at the port.
Officials freed the birds from the bottles, but many were weak and several later died.
Cockatoos were classified as critically endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources in 2007.
CNN reports that wildlife smuggling is big business in Indonesia, and the water bottle method is commonly used to smuggle birds.
