Cage World here in Mesa has one named Pig. I believe it's because of the grunting type sound they make. Some of the lines on their beaks look like someone drew them on with a permanent marker. They are beautifully colored birds.

They are pretty...I wonder if they make good pets? Not that I can afford one. Im sure they are quite pricey. I like the toco's.

I've seen them on display at a pet store somewhere (Seattle? San Francisco?), and while unbelivably gorgeous, they were oh-so-messy! They pooped often, and it was liquid. Store owners said they make good aviary birds, but that they have very specific dietary and housing needs, as well as that whole poop issue. They sound difficult to keep, and I long ago decided to admire them from zoos and other suitable display environments. Maybe if I win some $300M lottery sometime, and can afford to set up some sort of sanctuary-type environment....

Parrot Mountain in Pigeon Forge, TN has a couple of Toucans. They're beautiful unique birds.
