Best Answer

Toucans are actually a family of birds found in Central and South America comprised of around 40 species split among 5 Genera. Many species live in the rainforest so may be threatened due to deforestation. However the arguably most well recognised, the Toco toucan prefers open woodland habitats so is less likely to be impacted by deforestation. It is currently on Birdlife International's Least concern list
