I live in Brazil and here in front of my apartment I saw parrots going mad when a toucan approached.... Now I know why...

They literally make predator noices so this doesn't surprise me.

"They bring back the whole food to the nest." *imagines Toupac shopping at Whole Foods*

Yes, they ARE predators. Not what a casual observer would ever consider gazing on a peaceful looking, grape chugging toucan at a pet store or zoo...

Always makes me laugh when people say that birds eating birds or fish eating fish is cannibalism. Like bruh how many mammals have you eaten

So this is what happens when someone takes Toucan Sam's Fruit Loops...

So even though she is captive bread, Maeve still has and follows her natural instincts, even if it is with toys. Fascinating.

Maeve trying to rip apart and drown prey really does not surprise me. Especially as it’s an effective way at killing phones.

Disturbing, though necessary. On a side note, it’s nice to see Beatrix in a more comfortable environment for her. Not anxious at all. Hope she develops that confidence outside the cage.

It's kind of funny how something so derpy and silly looking is only a notch or two short of being at the top of the food chain. Don't only eagles hunt toucans?

I will NEVER look at "Fruit Loops" cereal the same again!

I had no idea that toucans even hunted parrots. The more I learn, the more I find out how much I don't know.

Maeve washes her food. Raccoon confirmed.

Rio: Toucans and Parrots friends. Reality: Edit: This is pathetic, but I've never had this many likes before on a comment 😂

9:00 Toucan casually having a snack, while the other birds try and protect their nest

Wild birds like toucans are, in all essentiality, dinosaurs. Evolved dinosaurs that look very different to how we'd expect dinosaurs to look, but that predatory, meat-eating dinosaur DNA has never left them, really!

Well this is different. But I'm glad you're educating the world about toucans. Of course David Attenborough had to make an appearance

Toucans are way more badass than I first thought. Love it and love these informative videos.

That's sooooo crappy! I love it. I remember as a kid being disappointed that they only eat fruits because their beaks look like an impressive weapon. Now I know they are sometimes predators!

Wow! I never would have thought of Toucans being predatory birds. Usually when you see them presented in wildlife shows they're always shown in a more positive light. They're like parrots but you can get bit or they only eat fruit. I've never seen a Toucan in this light before until today. Great presentation! I learned something new to add to my own wildlife knowledge. Yeah, I used to read quite a bit of books as a kid. I'm still searching and researching older animal topics, getting "newer" answers for what I may have missed.

Interesting. Maybe you can hide stuff in socks and hang them somewhere, so they can search for treats inside.

I have seen captive Toucans before, and have always thought that they were beautiful and vegetarian. This is sure an eye opener for me.

Shows another reason why toucans should not be considered ‘easy’ pets. Thanks for the whole picture and education. Still love your flock 🥰

Man, I was really naive how big toucans got. This was fascinating. You were a great commentator. Love your passion.

The fact that they look so clownish and benign - almost adds to the horror of their savagery.

Never miss neck day

Toucans noooooo! You are a friendly family mascot! Eat some cereal or something?! Think of the children!

Love those more informative videos about toucans in accordance with the other light-hearted videos! This is what I call quality content! 🖤❤🧡💛💚💙🤍

Maeve: "Why yes, I eat Fruit Loops... DRENCHED IN THE BLOOD OF MY ENEMIES!" I remember the first time I found out they don't just eat fruits I was absolutely shocked. I didn't expect them to be able to hunt very easily with such awkwardly large beaks. (Note: Fruit Loops are not actually part of a balanced breakfast for toucans!)

I live in Brazil and I have already seen toucans attacking other birds shamelessly! 🤣🇧🇷🤟🏻

I used to think toucans are friendly herbivore birds hehehe when I was young because of the George of the Jungle film. This definitely changed my perception of toucans.

3:57 , yikes, looks like a parrotlet (one of my favorite birds). Poor guy, I hope at least the toucan put the nutrients from it to good use. To be honest, it’s not that disturbing. It’s natural, unlike a domestic cat or dog killing one. I find dogs and cats killing birds to be extremely disturbing, since it’s unnatural (for the parrot, since cats and dogs, especially cats are invasive).

I never knew there was this side to Toucans. Very informative.

I will never look at a box of "Froot Loops" the same

Toucan Sam got tired of the bootleg Millville Fruit Rounds cereal Parrot trying to pass himself off as real Fruit Loops so he decided to end his whole career! 🤣

I want disembodied Brock to narrate my life

Absolutly incredible!! I had no idea that toucans hunted like this. Mother nature always amazes me. Great info

Thank you so much for making a video covering this topic! People don’t understand how dangerous toucans really are and put them next to their food and expect them to get along

i can never see Toucan Sam, the same again !

I would love to see more educational videos on toucans and how this relates to your own, keep it up

I’m still trying to figure out how can something be so beautiful an colorful an yet be a predator, wow.

Wicked little blueberry catching dinosaurs. I'm impressed by the abilities of these beauty birds

The bird at 10:51 looks like an amazon, I recognize the wing feathers. They look like the secondaries of my yellow-crowned amazon. The red and blue definitely suggests that.

As a parrot lover and owner, I had to cut this video short. I know it's nature, but I just can't handle it where there's parrots involved.

most birds have excellent vision, being able to see nuts, seeds and berries on the ground while flying pretty high in the air.

Thx for the education. I would have never thought they were so aggressive

They are colorful DINOSAURS..so this doesn't surprise me...

Learnd about this when I first started watching your channel when you did one of these back when you had Ripley. Great to get this out for prospective buyers to open there eyes on what there wanting to get in to and change there minds. Not many people think about this or even about how brutal other cute animals actually are or can be. Even the simple chicken.

This changes my mind about Toucans :/

You did a fantastic job searching, clipping and explaining these videos and tucan behavior, in addition, you associated it the things your birds do. I love this!

Whaaaat?! Prior to this I thought toucans were these cute sweet birds that only ate fruit and hung out in beautiful trees all day somewhere in Brazil. Had no clue lol

my macaw ate a fly the other day. so proud!

Brocks next video title: "Toucans try parrot for the first time"

waaaay back in 2000 i worked at a pet bird store that offered boarding, and one of our regular boarders was a toucan. He was the only tame boarder we did not allow out of the cage (one half of a giant pagoda, not a normal bird cage, it was more meant to be an outdoor aviary even though we had it inside, the other regular boarder that used it was a golden pheasant, not at the same time of course). he was incredible and possibly my favorite boarder, but we had to be very, very careful because he would try to attack the other birds through the bars if he thought they were close enough. I kinda wonder if they can be trained for falconry... toucanry?

Ahh, parrots. The other, other fruit.

Thank You, SO Much! That Really put Tucans in a Whole Different light for me! I Really Appreciated that.

KZfaq is REALLY getting obnoxious with commercial interruptions. There were at least TEN while I was trying to watch this video 🤬

Wtf I’m a biologist for 20 years and I never saw this! Toucans were just fruit eaters to me

I'll never look at a box of "Fruit Loops" the same way again.

Sorry I couldn't watch this all the way. I have parrots and this was a little unsettling. Still love your channel and feathered family.

I would have never expected that I'll see a video of a parrot being eaten today, but here I am

Great job Brock. Very informative. This and your Toucans bites video are some of my favorites. Keep up the great work.

I love these educational style videos. Would love to see more of these!

11:10 Today I've also learned that Toucans are colorful vultures. 😅

The bird eating chipmunk in my backyard: Finally a worthy opponent!...

Very cool stuff. Finally a lil knowledge on my favorite Saturday morning cereal mascot, Toucan sam for fruit loops Lol. I'd love to work with them too.

Never knew they were so vicious. Thanks for the informative video. 🦜

Great. That's just what the worlds needs right now.. Killer Toucans!!

This was fantastic! Look forward to more educational content like this!

0:05 What I think my mic sounds like: 0:28 What it really sounds like:

“Tupac” perfect 👌🏾

This is such an awesome video! Thank you so much for making it. Your toucan knowledge is encyclopedic (ofc)

Omg love them merchandise great selection at reasonable prices :)

This is pretty informative, I never even knew this about toucans.

Very educational. I had no idea about their habits. Your videos sure bring the challenges of these unique birds. Thank you. You are doing a wonderful job getting the info out. I have never owned a bird but I am fascinated by birds' behavoirs and their beauty. Thanks!

wow, i learned something today.

Sees tucan mutating dead parrot and eating live chicks : *Nothing * Sees tucan poke jaguar in the eye : "now this is disturbing "

Wow thanks for the education never knew Toucans did this

That was great!!! Badass flying dinosaurs man! Keep up the awesome work.

Very informative video. Keep up the good work Brock :).

cant take the theropod out of the bird even after millions of years

When the Tocos start raiding the nests I caught myself gasping "Toupac noooooo!". Yeah it's late here I should go to bed -.-

I think it's awesome to see that they're brave birds. This video was really informative. Thanks! :)

0:00 WARNING: This video puts the "graphic" in "National Geographic."

Toucans should be considered Birds of Prey.

"Come on Polly! Just follow your nose, it always knows!"

truly amazing birds! i had no idea they’re predators. so they’re beautiful and badass.

They are like colourful crows. No offence, I love crows ^^

So why am I learning this now? Fifty years on the planet, and I am now just hearing about this.

I never knew this about toucans, interesting stuff.

Love this video, super fascinating!

I would have thought that they're beaks are too fragile to be effective predators but i guess not

Who else is here from Patrick Cloud🖐🏾

Coming to theaters everywhere: Mean Birds.

Thank you for the education! I would have never found out that stuff if not for you! I admire your approach.

Well that was disturbing yet informative!😬

This was such a great vid!! Would love more behavioral/"deep dive" into the birds type of stuff like this!! Also, would be RREEAALLY interesting to see what kind of insects you could source for them to "taste test" somehow, someday??🤔🤔🤔🤔 seems like another viable, easier source of protein for them in the wild? I wonder how many insects they really eat?🤔🤔 great stuff!!

Soo informative! Thank you!

1:07 One of the most metal pictures of a toucan I've ever seen.

Killer Toucans! And a Kraken toucan. :) :)
