What does the toucan eat?

Toucans are known for their large colored beaks. But do you know what they eat and where they live? We count!

The toucans' beak (up to 20 centimeters) seems to be quite heavy, doesn't it? None of that! The bone structure is spongy, leaving the beak light (only 25 grams). Colors vary by species and attract dating partners.

Toucans usually eat fruits, but they do not do without lizards, insects, as well as eggs and baby birds. They inhabit Central and South America, with a total of 34 species, which live in flocks.

At the time of breeding, nests are made in hollow parts of trees. The female lays 2 to 4 eggs and the chicks take about 50 days to leave the nest.
