Something we know by just keeping an eye on
them...and asking many questions
  • The toucans scientific name is Pteroglossus
    torquatus
  • It feeds from the following trees at different
    times of the year Ficus nitida (laurel de la
    India), Dendropanax arboreus (mano de león),
    Myrciaria cauliflora (jabotijaba), and Brassaia
    actinophylla (a type of schefflera). It does not
    eat human leftovers.
  • Share your nature observations with the upper
    schools Biodiversity class (the classroom with
    the turtles on the door!)
