Woman Brings Home A Sad Toucan. He Purrs Like A Cat! | Cuddle Buddies

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Note for fellow animal lovers🗒 Although Touki has a fun personality and makes adorable purrs, toucans like him are not pets. He was rescued from a bad situation in captivity and Janelle did the best she could do to save his life. Please don't seek getting a toucan. We recommend donating to rescues and wildlife organisations to help these birds thrive in their natural homes🌳

Thank you for posting this important message!

[@soniaorel3730]

Yes, every time I see a Toucan I think of the battle with Rocko on Bird Tricks. Despite a low iron diet he developed hemochromatosis and it was heartbreaking but he died - kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqSVo2uejN2ifKc . Something to watch out for if you have a Toucan.

[@mpettway6982]

I'm so excited to see you state this. Many channels don't pay attention to details like this. Thanks!

[@IrieAllDay88]

@@soniaorel3730 You can also watch 2Can TV. The guy has lost a lot of his rescued toucans, heartbreaking. He has dedicated his life to raising awareness.

It sure saddens me to see people remove them out of their own environment. Then they need to be cared for like pets that they aren’t. I’m very grateful that she stepped up to help protect that beautiful bird. It’s a bond that worked out so well.

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Your empathy is touching! Touki's story is indeed about finding a balance between care and respect for his natural habitat. Thanks for your support! 😊🦜

[@deboramccallum3987]

It pains me to see tropical birds taken from their habitat..rainforests need to be protected & so do birds

[@vaughnmojado8637]

@@CuddleBuddiesChannelI’d do just like her though if I had to just to protect the bird. But I think I’d do a bit more research to see what kind of sanctuary in the habitat where he’s from to try to get him back if possible.

[@jboughtin7522]

Something is off with this video. She says "we weren't in the market for a bird" but for some strange reason they were in contact with individuals that are likely illegally trafficking poached animals.

People are evil

[@TheOtherBoleynGirl336]

I’m so grateful that he was rescued! People should never get an exotic bird because it’s a novelty. Thankfully he was rescued from an ignorant and thoughtless person!

[@almagarcia7968]

Yes Most Definitely!

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Touki's story reminds us of the importance of responsible pet ownership. Thanks for your support! 😊🦜

[@Tank50us]

I would argue that if someone wants an exotic pet of any kind, talk to people who do captive breeding rather than just buying in local areas. Obviously they'd pay more, but the animal in question will be much healthier than one caught from the wild, and far more accepting of humans as they'd see us as part of the flock

[@blythegirl4348]

Thank you for this video. So sad that this toucan was ripped from his natural environment and thrown into the illegal pet trade. He was treated terribly until this kind soul found him. Thanks so much for this story!

[@dunkulusjones4564]

It's a heartwarming story on the face of it, but consider that the illegal pet trade only exists because customers like the woman in this video are willing to buy the poor animals. She is supporting the industry and is encouraging others to do so by inspiring others to rescue animals from similar situations. Sadly, sometimes having a heart can do more harm than good :(

[@blythegirl4348]

@@dunkulusjones4564 Well said!

[@Tank50us]

@@dunkulusjones4564 Like I've said in previous posts, what's needed is for more people to support breeders who breed these beautiful birds for the legal pet trade. Sure, they may be more expensive, but the birds will be much healthier seeing as they'll have access to vet care.

[@donabeth4561]

You can see the difference from his arrival to how happy, healthy and colourful he is now. Excellent job bravo 👏

[@Tchika]

Wow, she deserves respect. She knew what she would take on by taking him in, but did it anyway to rescue that poor soul. 💛🖤

[@michaelbelcher3622]

Thank you to this lady for taking in a bird that was in a bad situation. In this situation all she can do is give him the best life possible in captivity. These type of birds should be in the wild, but since he's been in human care, he can't go back to the wild.

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Thank you for recognizing Janelle's efforts! We agree that these birds belong in the wild, Touki's well-being is owners top priority now that he's under their care. Your understanding means a lot! 😊🦜

Guess this bird is better than the lady who saved it's life. Guess this bird is better than your parents, your family, your significant other, your children, and all the other humans who invented the scientific method, the judicial system, economic prosperity, homebuilding, infrastructure, medicine, technology, etc. 🤷‍♂️

[@madelaki]

@@smokingcrab2290 Meh, it's not like that has gotten us anywhere. Most people are miserable.

God bless Janelle for rescuing this beautiful sweet bird. The transformation is amazing. I agree with the message. Toucans are not pets. In general, It is best if they are free and in the wild.

[@CuddleBuddiesChannel]

Indeed, Janelle's dedication to rescuing Touki is truly admirable. We also believe in promoting the well-being of animals in their natural habitats. Thanks for your kind words and support! 😊🦜

It would be cruel and emotionally harmful for this beautiful bird to be raised at home!😢😮 " Free as a bird" certainly applies to this gorgeous bird!😂❤❤

I appreciate your concern! Touki actually thrives in a home environment where he gets lots of love and attention. He's living his best life with his familly! 😊🦜

[@Downecker]

I may have misunderstood something. I thought you were raising the Toucan until it can be turned over to a sanctuary where it would be slowly acclimated to a natural environment! If the bird can thrive at home with you that is a huge plus! Imagine , having a Toucan as a companion 😍😳😬! 24 HOURS A DAY !! I'd be in heaven!
