the toco toucan is the world’s largest species of toucan, native to south america. it’s large beak is actually very light, and is made up of hollow bone and keratin. the toco toucan’s beak makes up around half of the bird’s body size. this extraordinarily large beak is used to collect multiple fruits without having to reach to grab them, as well as being able to access foods other birds can’t.
