00:00:11.074 --> 00:00:12.114
<v SPEAKER_1>Hi, I'm Sloane.

00:00:12.114 --> 00:00:16.994
<v SPEAKER_1>Today, we're gonna talk about my very favorite animal, toucans.

00:00:18.994 --> 00:00:23.174
<v SPEAKER_1>There are over 40 different types of toucans.

00:00:24.474 --> 00:00:27.494
<v SPEAKER_1>Toucans live in forests and rainforests.

00:00:28.774 --> 00:00:32.274
<v SPEAKER_1>They can live to be 20 years old.

00:00:32.274 --> 00:00:34.794
<v SPEAKER_1>Did you know that toucans have ears?

00:00:36.414 --> 00:00:39.654
<v SPEAKER_1>They're hiding behind the feathers on their head.

00:00:42.654 --> 00:00:47.874
<v SPEAKER_1>Girl toucans lay two eggs at a time.

00:00:47.874 --> 00:00:51.194
<v SPEAKER_1>And baby toucans don't have any feathers.

00:00:52.334 --> 00:00:54.914
<v SPEAKER_1>And they have little beaks.

00:00:54.914 --> 00:00:59.014
<v SPEAKER_1>And as they get older, the beaks get bigger.

00:00:59.014 --> 00:01:01.694
<v SPEAKER_1>Toucans have four toes on each foot.

00:01:02.434 --> 00:01:05.454
<v SPEAKER_1>That helps them to hold on to branches.

00:01:06.634 --> 00:01:10.914
<v SPEAKER_1>And toucans have long, colorful beaks.

00:01:10.914 --> 00:01:14.174
<v SPEAKER_1>Toucan beaks are made of keratin.

00:01:14.174 --> 00:01:17.694
<v SPEAKER_1>That's what our hair and fingernails are made out of.

00:01:17.694 --> 00:01:21.714
<v SPEAKER_1>Toucans have long, gray tongues.

00:01:21.714 --> 00:01:31.034
<v SPEAKER_1>When toucans are hungry, they eat mostly fruit, but also bugs, lizards, and even small birds.

00:01:31.034 --> 00:01:34.174
<v SPEAKER_1>Toucans make lots of different sounds.

00:01:34.174 --> 00:01:37.374
<v SPEAKER_1>Sometimes they croak like frogs.

00:01:37.374 --> 00:01:40.834
<v SPEAKER_1>Sometimes they bark, purr, and growl.

00:01:40.834 --> 00:01:44.974
<v SPEAKER_1>Or they can make clicking sounds with their beaks.

00:01:44.974 --> 00:01:48.154
<v SPEAKER_1>My favorite is their cute honking sounds.

00:01:54.354 --> 00:01:58.454
<v SPEAKER_1>My favorite Toucan is Chester, the Toucan.

00:01:58.454 --> 00:02:01.634
<v SPEAKER_1>I like watching his videos on Instagram.

00:02:01.634 --> 00:02:02.694
<v SPEAKER_1>He's so cute.

00:02:02.734 --> 00:02:05.054
<v SPEAKER_1>I love Chester.

00:02:05.074 --> 00:02:06.634
<v SPEAKER_1>I love Toucans.

00:02:06.634 --> 00:02:07.074
<v SPEAKER_1>Bye.
