Ever thought about what a Toucan would look like without a beak? It's haunted me ever since I thought about it myself.
The truth revealed
what would you look like without a jaw?
Not to be the annoying one, but they also are famous for eating eggs and even young birds from the nest, and I consider that very metal
Have toucan, can confirm.
I actually got to play with a toucan once, their beaks aren't very powerful, and they can be very friendly.
Very silly screechy little fellows.
They look like nightmare pets but oh boy do I want to play with one.
I always dreamed of being an or perhaps a berry!
Joke aside, there is a legitimate point to be made, because plant - herbivore interactions can be modeled similarly to predator - prey interactions. That also works to s certain degree for parasite - host interactions.
OK but what about the video I saw last week of toucans catching and eating fucking BATS
It still counts if the prey dies of laughter!
