yes, Keel Billed Toucans are endangered species. They are endangered by hunting or when the mountains are on fire. So Belize is protecting those birds because they are few in their country and they represent a national bird.
---------------------------
No they are not endangered, their status is in fact least concern, which means it's not even nearly endangered. (my source for this information is the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums, and IUCN, an organization that has the job of figuring out whether an animal is endangered, and to what extent.)

Why do most flightless birds not need a large keel?
Flightless birds do not need a large keel because they don't have functional wings for flight, so there is no need for the large breastbone attachment needed for flight muscles. The keel is an adaptation found in birds that use their wings for sustained flight.
What part of the chicken is the kill bone?
The keel is the large bone you see when you eat a roasted chicken and pull the breast meat away from the large flat bone that looks like the keel of a boat. The keel is the "breast bone"....flattened and elongated in birds to give a place for the wing muscles to attach...allowing more power for flight. It is also used to check how healthy a bird is....if you can feel the keel easily and it seems to be protruding, the bird is underweight. If you can feel solid muscle and body weight on either side, making the keel just a line found between muscles if you can find it at all, then the bird is eating alright and keeping weight.
