Introduction
The Keel-billed Toucan (Ramphastos sulfuratus) occurs in tropical lowland evergreen and secondary forests from southern Mexico, where it is the only large toucan, south through Central America to northern Colombia and extreme northwestern Venezuela. In a large part of its range, it overlaps with the "Chestnut-mandibled Toucan" (Ramphastos ambiguus swainsonii). Its bizarrely patterned green, orange, red, and blue bill is diagnostic. It feeds largely on fruit, but also consumes arthropods and small vertebrates.
