This is the second-largest toucan, topped only by Ranphastos toco (seen elsewhere in this gallery). Toucans are frugivorous birds, consuming fruit from as many as 100 species of trees and other plants. They also consume a variety of insects for protein, especially during their nesting cycle, and sometimes eat snakes, lizards or nesting birds.
