In the wild they eat hundreds of different varieties of fruit, such as ficus fruits. In captivity they are commonly fed fruits such as blueberries, papaya, melon, grapes, bananas and more. Citrus fruit should not be given to a toucan, because their tendency to develop something called hemochromatosis (also known as iron storage disease) and citrus (as well as anything high in iron) increases the likelihood of them suffering and dying from that illness.

Toucans eat lots of fruit from the amazon rain forest like ficus (figs), blueberries, papaya, melon, grapes, and bananas.
