The Toco Toucan is a large, colorful bird native to the tropical forests of South America. It is easily recognized by its striking black body, white throat, and vibrant orange-yellow bill, which can be up to 8 inches long. Toco Toucans primarily feed on fruits, but they also eat insects and small animals. These birds are social and often found in small groups. They are known for their loud, distinctive calls and playful behavior. Toco Toucans play an important role in their ecosystem by helping to disperse seeds from the fruits they consume, contributing to forest regeneration.
