Bro toucans are fucking scary. We used to run a parrot rescue. I have plenty of scars from Macaws or Cockatoos, but the one time we had a Toucan, holy fucking shit dude. Those beaks are fucking pincers. I didn’t even get close to it after seeing the things it could snap like twigs.
Really? I figured they would have less bite force due to the shape, more kitchen tongs than Macaw’s metal shears for a beak
Toucans, or at least the kind we had, have serrated beaks, so in addition to the clamping force, they can tear your flesh while they’re at it.
I do believe they have less bite force than most macaws, but they’re also less docile than most macaws also. Macaws rarely use anywhere near their full power when biting things or people.

Well of course It’s called a Toucan, not a Toucan’t
PLEASE HOW DO I GET A TOUCAN?
Birds live really, really, really long lives, and require more emotional support than any animal I know of. Unless you have children who are okay with you willing the bird to them, and can at least spend a full time job worth of time with the bird every week, don’t get one. I mean, seriously, if the bird doesn’t live on your shoulder during your every waking hour, you are emotionally abusing and traumatizing that bird. They’re far more intelligent and social beings than most people give them credit for. They should not live in cages.

NO.
I watched YT channel that had rescue toucans and they belong to the wild. Every 5mins the owner reminds (and I believed he was/is a good owner) of this fact.
Funniest thing was the velociraptor mode and pure chaos. Saddest thing was seeing them die to health complications, despite the good care.
