That’s actually pretty interesting, I wasn’t aware that toucans actually ate much meat. I figured they mostly ate most of whatever vegetarian options they had available to them.

Deadly, but still adorable. I guess that's part of the problem, people fail to anticipate the aggression because it looks cute.

[@zamundaaa776]

Your comment could be about cats

[@acoolcat8160]

@@zamundaaa776 cats tend to be a bit more tame, but yeah it can be true with cats that have undergone a lot of trauma, abuse or just generaly tend to be territorial.

[@dubanx3889]

A lot of things we humans find "adorable" are predatory behavior. We are very predatory animals, and it shows if you step back and think about it. It's not coincidence that our most common pets of choice are also predatory animals, that is dogs and cats. Nor is it coincidence that we find cats hunting play toys and the like to be so cute.

[@ElveeKaye]

I had no idea that toucans are meat eaters! Thought they just ate fruit and nuts. I'm glad you have these videos. People need to know that toucans aren't just pretty creatures to be locked in a cage, they are intelligent, aggressive, and have specific dietary requirements that not everyone is able to meet.

[@dreadnought-ai]

Huh, I genuinely thought they were exclusively specialised towards fruit and stuff with that beak/bill, interesting.

[@freedustin]

Dreadnought AI the length helps them snatch other birds in flight. it's like a multi tool beak.

[@cryptocorynes1253]

freedustin also very good at reaching into other birds nests

[@ech0222]

Nope they’re omnivores

[@helium-379]

Even known herbivores would eat other animals if given the chance. Such as a cow eating a chick. Animals be animals and if they think they can eat the other one then they will try.

[@Rainygirl3100]

And folks say dinosaurs wouldn't have been "as scary" with feathers. Ripley strongly disproves this, as seen in the video! Adorably terrifying little creature, lol

[@bluelobster56]

*"toucan douchebaggery"* 😂😂😂

[@acoolcat8160]

I love channels where people acctually know about the animals they're taking care of, like you. hats off to you. bigger birds need owners like yourself that care enough to do the research, and not just impulsively buy to just have, or because they think the idea of owning one, or more is cool.

[@shellwalsh3317]

I just adore these Ripley videos..she is a devine creature. I'm 50yo &have learned so much about these birds & i was SHOCKED seeing the footage of one eating a bat! Not to mention the tiny sweetheart hummingbird which is my ultimate favorite species of birds..so much that I had 3 custom tattoos of hummingbirds done many years ago. I would NEVER have imagined the toucan being SO AGRESSIVE.. Ripley is just regal looking..

[@rokhamler3352]

These days people regularly forget that nature is very rarely friendly and very, very brutal most of the time.

[@ozvoid1245]

Ever since humana gained the ability to love and care about other animals, we kinda lost that instinct that the wild is unforgiving.

[@WesleyPonZi]

please don’t eat me ripley

[@Dragonfyre.]

I learned something today; toucans are omnivores and predators :P

[@megamegaO]

Kinda redundant pointing out that it's also a predator when she's already an omnivore.

[@seanhenrynewman5181]

@@megamegaO not necessarily. Certain animals eat meat but don't hunt, a ton of scavenger animals out there

[@wowzerssmith5027]

Patrick Cloud brought me here to RUIN my childhood image of toucans!!! OMFG!!!

[@nope_nope_nono]

WOW!! Thank you! I assume that a LOT of people think of toucans as a non-agressive and fruit-eater bird. Had no idea

[@colinmartin9797]

It's interesting that they are predators when they are so sensitive to iron overload... blood , livers, organs all have a ton of iron.

[@2CANTV]

But they consume animals that live in environments adapted to that. Things domestically have higher iron which is why they can't handle it in captivity as much.

[@Abcsam86]

Nice video very informative and I think any bird is a big commitment I have heard they get very attached to the owner also so leaving on vacations and stuff like that for extend amounts of time is very stressful on them.

[@HailingHayles15]

You mentioned that you show the highlights, maybe you should also show her moody side for educational reasons as to show what people would have to look forward to if anyone is thinking about getting a toucan. I mean, I have 2 cockatiels and 2 budgies and people always say to me that they are easy to look after, no, they aren’t really, so I think it would be a great idea to show the bad side of her to avoid future toucans being re-homed, given up for adoption because it was too much for people to handle

[@marcusm5127]

So that is why she sounds like a predator.

[@RavenDarkHeart1]

Omg I didn't know toucan were predators I just thought that they only eat fruit.

[@MorellioBenoir]

Really interesting video, thanks! A dose of reality for potential owners always helps them avoid a bad situation.

[@jslferrell]

[@staceyh98]

[@misssincere5762]

How come I never knew this lol!!!??? Very informative thanks!!

[@nateroyer6247]

I never knew toucans eat meat. Wonder if it hurts to be bit by a bird. I have a cockital and she hisses at me and I'm the nicest person ever.

[@Rainygirl3100]

Nate royer Oh yes, if a bird wants to hurt you, it WILL. Especially the ones with strong beaks or sharp beaks, like parrots or birds of prey, though any bird that feels angry or threatened can pack a punch. I've been bit by a non-socialized macaw, and it felt like my finger got caught in a slamming car door! Toucans are softbills, so they can't apply much pressure with their bill and it wouldn't hurt as much as a parrot, but I'm sure the serrated beak can easily cut the skin. Definitely something to consider for potential owners of any bird.

[@nateroyer6247]

PangoPixel it's like a knife

[@nikipiulitzaable]

You should try to anger a rooster to see how you gonna run away screaming ;)

[@Its_Me_Romano]

Mariuta Nicolae lol I have a aggressive rooster on my petting zoo I work at and when you enter his cage he attacks your legs feet first little bugger

[@artsyscrub3226]

Makaws and cockatoos can famously break fingers. Smaller birds can break skin and make you bleed. I had to capture my sister's unhand tamed budgies. Small as they are it still hurt awfully. Imagine 100× that force. Its generally not fun to be bit by your birds.

[@UsingGorillaLogic]

[@julieontology7214]

A Toucan is apparently what you get if you cross a parrot with a velociraptor.

[@zarielin8110]

I'm curious. How strong is her beak? And, what does it feel like when she nips at you? She is a beautiful bird, and I find it really interesting to see how she interacts with you and other objects. She seems like an intelligent, curious, playful, and very sweet toucan ♡

bet if someone broke into your home and saw that beak, they would back away slowly, close the door silently and turn themselves into the nearest police station.
