My favorite moment for this week will be Zeema looking at Jess like "Seriously? That's moving! That's not fruit! What the heck human?" xD

[@Roaryer]

I had a solid laugh at that

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

Goodness, poor baby! Sounds like neglect at best and abuse at worse. I'm so glad she is with you guys now! It's a miracle she's alive.

[@SeabassFishbrains]

Clipping wings to that degree is definitely abuse, birds need to retain some flight feathers in order to balance safely (especially for a bird with a leg problem), no avian vet in their right mind would cut straight through all the flight feathers (some of those feathers were likely blood feathers and would bleed painfully) let alone clip a single feather that far back.

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

SeabassFishbrains oh I forgot about that part. Ugh. 😞

[@yasercantillo8918]

Welcome to Chickenlandia yay

[@WelcometoChickenlandia]

HAHA she is not trying to have that mealworm LOL!!! Get better soon, Zeema!

[@bubbajenkins123]

[@konstantinub]

Best comment I've seen all week :')

[@SuzyJacobs87]

Her reaction to the mealworm was great!!! Hahahaha! I already love her! So glad she ended up at Animal Wonders where she has a chance! Get better, Zeema!!

[@cheyannekuehl8613]

:) ""-

[@marcof.6583]

Glad you’ve got her “in time”. I would fix her leg ASAP - Being able to regain balance, no longer having the infection nor the pain (and its associated negative impact on her psyche), should help her heal faster, physically and emotionally. It’s a shame what they did to the helpless bird. She’s blessed to have you. I wish her all the luck!

[@ShadeSlayer1911]

I think she needs some time to heal up her respiratory infection, get more comfortable with the area, and gain more strength before it's safe to attempt the procedure, hence why Jessie said that they would wait. I imagine going too soon into the procedure before she at least regains some vital strength could risk killing her.

[@Palitato]

@@ShadeSlayer1911 Very true! Birds are especially fragile when it comes to going under anesthesia, and can have their hearts stop as well as their breathing with no warning! They're one of the most fragile and delicate creatures you can attempt to put under! I've seen more birds suddenly go into respiratory or heart failure than any other animal in all the animal-ER shows that I've seen- and they're the most likely not to recover. Getting the respiratory infection cleared up first is VITAL to having her survive a procedure on her leg. They can't really re-break and set it properly while she's awake!

[@stephaniesummer2663]

Rebreaking a leg sounds like a nightmare. Hope she gets better. She so friendly!

[@vickymc9695]

Yep, but might be the way to go if the sharp end of the bone keeps cutting her leg and getting infected. Hopefully it'll heal up enough that that stops happening. 🙂 I'm just really glad she's with animal wonders now.

[@lNFINlTEx]

It does sound like a nightmare! It'll probably be under anesthesia though, so slightly less horrible than the first time.

[@who818]

I live my urge of owning a tropical birds through you. I would not make a good bird owner but a girl can dream

[@Haytchtwoalt]

Beautiful banana birb

[@summer6100]

[@rhinopoley]

I feel bad for the lil Toucan. I hope she gets all healthy soon!

[@tzxazrael]

"soft and juicy..." this may not have been the optimal choice for watching while i eat dinner! lol.

[@animalwondersmontana]

Haha, sooorry

[@andreaaristokrates9516]

Oh goodness, why must this bird be soo cute eating. The fruit flying into the back of her beak looks surreal.

[@IonIsFalling7217]

Some people are absolutely disgusting. I'm glad you're their to offset them and pick up their discarded beings.

[@Peeper117]

Potassuim_Cation yeah

[@facesbysusanna]

Ooh I know omg 😢😢😢😢😢

[@whychoooseausername4763]

What a beautiful bird, I'm so glad she found such a wonderful home after being through so much already.

[@ieatemos]

"I can't believe Zeema is so active and in such good spirits after everything she's been through." She's a good girl, and she knows she's in good hands

[@hiko73]

This poor baby

[@maxor2277]

I am so glad to see how much of a personality she still has after what she has been through! You all do such amazing work!

[@elwynbrooks]

The way she tilts her head as if looking for a cuddle/ approval!! What a sweetheart and a wonderful personality

[@DanSpotYT]

Even though in rough shape...such a pretty bird. Hope Zeema does well and thank you for taking care of her!

[@b21.9]

Get well soon, Zeema! I'm so glad that she's in your hands now. Thank YOU so much, Jessi ❤️

[@MarieSuzette]

She has so much personality! Beautiful little lady.

[@SeabassFishbrains]

That's one of the worst wing clipping jobs I've ever seen, poor baby!!

[@animalwondersmontana]

I don't know what they were thinking!

[@SeabassFishbrains]

@@animalwondersmontana I'm glad that she's in your care now! I know you'll take good care of her!

[@bigmikebeebee]

Unfortunately they were probably purposefully trying to prevent her from flying away 🙁

[@rubymimosa]

Thank goodness she found her way to you. How could someone not treat a broken leg?!

[@ediekoller1144]

I loved the way Zeema looked at you when you tried to offer her the meal worm..as if to say "Your giving that to me" or 'Eww that is an awful thing and I do not like food that squirms" Very cute. Zeema is so cute. I have seen full grown Toucans at a bird store but not a baby one. I am so glad she will be well taken care of now... Thanks so much Jessi..!

[@Diogofrn]

The more I watch your videos the more I respect your work and the fearful decision you guys had in having this huge responsability. Well Done! I wish Zeema the best.

[@nickykeightley1724]

I'm so pleased that she is on her way to full recovery. Zeema is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

[@Gyarren]

Poor little thing!!! I'm glad she's in your hands now, where she can get all the help and love she needs and deserves!

[@johnmcglynn2125]

What a lovely animal. Who would mistreat an animal like that. Makes me very sad. Bless you for all your efforts and I hope Zuma recovers totally.

[@sarahmarie1391]

Awww she's so precious. How in the world does someone injure or neglect a helpless animal? Wish I could give her a home here with me, with lots of love and everything she needs. I'm so thankful you have her. Love your channel and you all at Animal Wonders.

[@Kaneanite]

Hello Zeema. You've had a rough life so far, but that all ends now. You're in the best of hands now. We'er all pulling for you Zeema.

[@Piarou]

Darn, she is a beauty, even in this state. I can't wait to see her in full plumage, healthy and happy. I am glad for her she came to be at the care of you, the amazing people of Animal Wonders

[@mikeg9b]

I'm so glad you're caring for Zeema now. She needs to be with someone who can give her the care she needs. Please give us updates on how she's doing.

[@caitlinveal5709]

She so sweet!! I cant believe shes so strong with everything going on with her...thank you for taking her in! I hope she recovers quickly and smoothly. Shes gonna be gorgeous when she grows up! ❤

[@lhshnailed7523]

Get well soon sweety! Thanks for taking care of all the wonderful animals with so much love and care.

[@lacywilliams5649]

Thank you so much for caring for Zeema and all the other animals at Animal Wonders. Keep us posted on her progress!

[@maggiebruh8386]

toucans are such sweet birds and never deserve that type of pain! I hope she gets perfectly healthy and happy!!

[@AlphaBetaDeltaGamma]

Thanks Jesse. I didn't realise it up until now but it turns out that a baby toucan is exactly what I needed today. I hope she gets better soon.

[@gagski11]

thank you guys for taking care of those poor animal friends. Your channel deserves more recognition from the KZbin community.

[@willcrago4463]

Omg! Such a trooper.

[@hollyodii5969]

I just LOVE Zima! She's in good hands now! Phew!!!

[@voyagerabove4034]

I hope you toucan develop a long and happy friendship.

[@jaimie00]

So glad that you could take her and get her on the road to recovery! I really admire all the hard work you do.

[@mariamd786]

Poor birb, also I absolutely love your bird videos.

[@elskabee]

She's such a beautiful bird despite her injuries I hope she recovers well from everything she's been through

[@cooperolm9687]

Poor girl, can't wait to see her looking happy and healthy someday.

[@evelynheckman460]

She has such a big personality! Love her! I laughed so hard when you offered her the worm her reaction was pricelss!

[@Azzarinne]

Oh my goodness, I LOVED when she looked at you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@vphoenix5213]

I just love how kind you are to these birds. We could learn so much from it

[@joemccallum710]

I have to commend your enthusiasm for animals... I just wish more people were as enthusiastic about animals as you are...

[@Alyss93]

She's so spritely for one who's been through so much! I really hope she can pull through ❤️

[@kherichi]

What an optimistic baby girl! I'm so glad that her past hasn't prevented her from trusting and playing with those at Animal Wonders! :')

[@screaminggecko7660]

I love her, she's so precious. I'm very glad she found her way to you guys

[@TheCassafrassTree]

It breaks my heart to hear how badly she's been treated, and what terrible condition she was in when she came to Animal Wonders. Poor thing must have been in so much pain. Now that she's in a safe place and getting the treatment she needs, she already looks so much happier! Those tail waggles don't lie! ^_^

[@Marianne_L]

Aww she's beautiful! Thank you for taking her in and showing her the best love and care that you show all the animals that come through your doors. I'm super excited to see more of Zeema 😄

[@sapphirII]

She's so cute! I found her funny at times. When she turned her head, it was like she wondered:"what is happening?"

[@dentednj]

What fabulous color she has and she isn't even at her best. Looking forward to her growing up and feathering again.

[@yenxion6516]

😍😢 I am so happy she end up with you guys and sad at the condition she in. I hope she get better soon so we can see more of her.

[@Awesomeboitheanimator_4879]

WE LOVE YOU ZEEMA!

[@JakeOchs]

All Toucans are cool, but that is one adorable little girl! Get well soon Zeema!

[@talktouasia6312]

AHHHHHHHHH TOUCANS ARE MY FAVORITE ANIMAL!!!!!!!! I’m so happy she is with you I know she’ll have a great live.

[@kelseywoodie3012]

Awww She's beautiful! I hope she heals well and has a happy life!

[@lonesomeluv5161]

she is so cute im glad you are taking care of her and giving her all the love she deserves

[@blueberry2195]

I’m so glad that she has you, poor baby girl ❤️

[@nathan8268]

How could someone let an animal in their care get to such a condition :( glad this beautiful baby has found a home with you, and I look forward to seeing her progress! I'm so happy to see that she hasn't lost her spirit though! What a strong little birdie!

[@ThousandTimesBefore]

She was NOT having that worm haha xD. Too cute!

[@GirtheAlienGoldfish]

Omg how she eats those blueberries is adorable! Get well soon, Zeema!

[@billywhyte6693]

Awww ... she's so lucky to have you guys help her. Ye' can see she trusts you ❤

[@stethacanthus7861]

WoW! I am so glad that beautiful bird is in a safe place now. Toucans are so friendly too, I hope some day she can delight people by meeting them and she will think it's great too :)

[@ADVBear]

Jessi, you are just... sensational. You render me speechless.

[@daniel_moretti]

I saw a baby toucan today while at the vet. It was SOOOOO cute!!!

[@vickytello457]

Wishing the little angel a speedy recovery :)) she's magnificent

[@samanthastone8435]

Hopefully she has a speedy recovery. I'm sure once she's ready she'll be a favorite at presentations!

[@katarzynapoomicz4586]

She is so sweet. I hope she will get better.

[@TrekkieBrie]

Wow this hurt my heart to watch. I don’t understand how anyone could let their pet get to that condition. Poor girl, I hope she gets better soon!

[@cravenlunatic1]

She's so cute! i love toucans. can't wait to see her looking healthier.

[@thegardenofeatin5965]

Aww, I love toucans, they're so goofy. Would never keep one as a pet, but I'll watch SO many toucan videos. I wish Zeema wasn't in such rough shape though. Get lots better Zeema!

[@torifisher7792]

She's beautiful! I love her and that look she gave you was priceless. Definitely looking forward to updates on her health.

[@JordanThomasRichards]

I must admit, it's been quite a while since I watched one of your videos. Not sure why, but that's besides my point. Two things; I'd forgotten how beautifully admirable your ethics are at Animal Wonders. The respect and love you show every animal that you feature is truly heartwarming. Secondly, as cliché as it sounds, I've determined that Jessi is much like a fine wine, she really does get better with age. Maybe I've just got a soft spot for gingers but wow, you're looking great Jessi!

[@krat5576]

She looks so proud about her new mom

[@Lady8D]

She's adorable! I hope she feels better soon! And oí! I don't envy you for being the ones that need to decide about her leg!

[@number5279]

You’re such an amazing person! Taking on so many tasks and challenges for this animals!

[@waterdogzzz]

Love the way she eats, just picking up the fruits, tossing it in her throat and swallowing it whole.

[@Aurora.sweet.flower]

Good luck Zeema!!!! Your in good hands, ♥️ rest well.

[@ryanmcintyre3616]

OMG, you guys do such good work! Thank you so so much for caring for these animals in need

[@Zye1984]

You know what I think would be really cool? If Animal Wonders Montana did a sort of collaboration video together with BirdTricks! You all seem so fun and could share your love for animals, and I'm sure Jessie would be super excited by B.T.'s birds, and B.T. enthralled with A.W.M.'s all sorts of animals!

[@bailarinalu]

I'm so sad she had to go through all of that. Happily it can recover with you guys!!

[@sophk817]

Aw that’s so cute! I hope she heals up :) I didn’t know they could be so kind with humans :0 I love how much you guys care for her and how much she’s progressed

[@dinkusoninkus]

Can't wait to see her get so much better!

[@moiraaoibheane]

Thank you so much for rescuing her!!

[@estelacpc]

she’s such a cutie! hope she gets better soon!! 💕💕

[@tedbxrch]

Aww, I hope Zeema gets better soon!

[@Marco_Onyxheart]

She's very cute

[@madhatt3r93]

[@mustardsfire22]

[@blueeyedMSUgirl]

Yay Zeema! I'm so glad she's doing so well- she's in the right place! Great job taking care of her

[@blueeyedMSUgirl]

I also loveeeeeeeeee her name!

[@kncomics]

That side eye when you tried to feed her that mealworm killed me

[@corablah9809]

I would love to go to a toucans native habitat and see one outside, that would be so amazing!

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

She is adorable

[@theplayer8189]

You guys are wonderful people

[@kchai2108]
