As with other species of toucans，the size of the Keel-billed Toucan’s bill does not affect the balance of the bird itself as its bill is made out of keratin，which is very light but still very strong. The Keel-billed Toucan is native to the jungles of South America where it lives in holes in the trees，often with several other Keel-billed Toucans.In order to make sure that there is enough space for them all，the Keel-billed Toucan group all sleep with their bill and tail under their body to create more room for the other birds. The Keel-billed Toucan has a diet with large quantities of different kinds of fruit.However，because of the surprising dexterity of its bill，the Keel-billed Toucan also eats bird eggs and insects，if there’s not enough fruit. The Keel-billed Toucan is an extremely sociable bird and is very hard to be seen on its own.As well as nesting together，the Keel-billed Toucan travels in small groups.Different from what people think though，the Keel-billed Toucan is not very good at flying and does most of its moving about by jumping between the tree branches. A female Keel-billed Toucan lays between 1 and 5 eggs in the hole of a tree，which usually hatch within a few weeks.Both the male and female Keel-billed Toucan hatch the eggs and both Keel-billed Toucan parents also feed and look after their babies until they are old enough and strong enough to protect themselves. 1．What will make you difficult to forget when you first see the Keel-billed Toucan? A．Its green colour.
