FACTS:

There are about 40 different kinds of toucans thats are found in the tropical forests in South America.
Toucans nest in holes in trees. Toucans uaually lay 2-4 eggs. The parents both take care of the eggs by keeping them warm. After about 16 days of keeping the eggs warm they hatch. Small Toucanets come out blind and naked after hatching from the eggs.
