There's something so deeply calming about watching megafauna prance and gambol about like they're little lambs
Bison pronking is already so magical, and then the double rainbow and the happy birdsong just put it way over the top
I'm guessing the anser is no, but are toucans fine to own as pets, or are they basically impossible for people to house properly?
Toucans could theoretically be ethically kept in an outdoor aviary large enough for them to fly and engage in natural enrichment activities, but do poorly in the home.
The main concern with toucans is that the ones in the pet trade are not all captive bred, and some young ones are still poached to supply demand. They are also very bitey and can easily draw blood because the edges of their beak are like a serrated knife.
People also often try to keep them in aviaries with other bird species, which results in the other birds being killed by the toucan because they’re omnivores. There is also an issue with their diet being properly supplemented in captivity by a pet owner who doesn’t fully understand their omnivorous nature.
But in general no. They are not ethical pets. Just because someone somewhere can give one a good life as a pet does not mean they should be in the pet trade or kept in peoples homes just because they want to have them. They’re still very much wild animals.
"...which results in other birds being killed because toucans are omnivores birds of prey" fixed it for you, no need to thank me.

This is it. This is the funniest thing I have ever seen.
Having fun imagining alien abductions as higher dimensional beings rescuing us from some sort of comical superspatial hazard we can't even perceive or comprehend, like having to hold a raccoon down and put grease on its neck to get its head unstuck from a peanut jar
"Fuck, man, I know we're not supposed to touch these things but did you see him? He was totally covered in a Neuemann-Andrugtshang Field and he didn't even know. Just drenched. Did you see how fucked up he looked? Poor thing, scared half to death. I need to go wash my hands."
based on scientific research
