The black-casqued hornbill is a striking, mostly black bird native to the rainforests of sub-Saharan Africa.
These birds thrive in the primary evergreen and mature secondary forests of West and Central Africa. Their native territory spans from Sierra Leone and Liberia to the Democratic Republic of the Congo and western Uganda.
They are frugivorous, getting about 90% of their diet from fruits like figs and oil palms. The rest of their diet consists of small insects. These birds usually live in pairs or small family groups. They are incredibly vocal. They produce a loud braying wail.
