Central and South America comprise the native range of the green-billed toucan. People also call this bird the red-breasted toucan. Large colorful beaks identify this species immediately. Serrated beak edges function much like teeth.
Berries, fruits, insects, and occasional small vertebrates make up the entire diet.
Short compact bodies characterize green-billed toucans. Rounded tails vary from half the length to the full length of the body. Thick, short necks support the head.
Breeding pairs lay two to four white eggs inside hollow tree cavities. Both parents incubate the clutch for about sixteen days.
