A toucan is one of my favorite birds. They are absolutely beautiful. Their colorful beaks are what makes them so striking. They are playful birds. They like to play beak wrestling with each other. They are also know to be very intelligent. Toucans like perching on high trees. They eat fruit. Toco toucans also often eat insects, baby birds, lizards and eggs. They can live to about 20 years. In captivity, their lifespan is often shorter, about 18 years. The highest record was 26 years. Toucans are native to South America.
