Ramphastos toco. Frontier's entry describes a bird seen alone, in pairs or in small family groups, with loose flocks outside the breeding season, long-lasting pair bonds, and a black-tipped orange bill up to about 20 cm long. It nests in tree holes and spreads seeds that help forests regrow.

Compare confirmed roster details

Toucan and great hornbill look alike but come from different continents. Both are aviary birds; compare their entries before planning a shared aviary.

Check Great Hornbill in Frontier’s Zoopedia. A shared label is not evidence of compatible welfare settings.

Planning notes for this animal

An aviary species with a tropical forest theme. Plan perches and tall trees for viewing; tree-hole nesting in the wild suggests checking which of the game's nest types it needs.

These are our design suggestions, not verified welfare requirements.

Habitat requirements and compatibility

Verify flying space, nest type, group size and companions in game. The aviary label confirms the building type, not which birds or land animals can share it.

Space, temperature, group limits and pairings remain unverified. Planning tools use fictional demo data.

Use the building guide for the currently sourced overview. Once actual gameplay values are checked, requirements will be published at this same URL.
