A toucan is a brightly colored bird native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. Toucans are known for their distinctive large, colorful beaks which are used for a variety of purposes including eating, reaching for food, and defense. They are also known for their playful behavior and can often be seen hopping from branch to branch in search of fruit, insects, and small prey. Toucans are considered to be social birds and often live in small groups, communicating with each other through a variety of calls and songs.

There are around 40 different species of toucans, with the Toco Toucan being the most well-known. Toucans play an important role in the ecosystem, helping to spread seeds throughout the rainforest as they eat fruits and berries.
