Blue-spotted toucans like to live in treetops; It is also the noisiest forest bird, capable of making loud rumbles, trumpets and screeches. When eating, always peck the food with the tip of the mouth first, then tilt the neck, throw the food upward, and then open the big mouth to accurately put the food into the throat, without having to go through the long mouth and spend time in the process of "swallowing". The blue-spotted toucan is omnivorous, feeding on fruits, seeds, and insects,
