It has a short, thick neck, small wings and a rounded tail. Its beak is sharp and has saw-like edges. Its predators are hawks, and other brig birds, humans, big cats, and worst of all.....JAGUARS! They are diurnal, (meaning they are awake in the day and sleep in night, like us). Toucans are endangered because of deforestatio, (when trees ae cut down), and they are captured to be sold in pet markets. They defend themselves by using their sharp beak. They also make a calling noise when a predator is near to call their flock. Toucans are essential/important to rainforests because, they help to disperse seeds.
