I agree with you. It really sucks there is people wanting to pay that amount of money for that type of "trophy" instead of doing something much better with it.

Birds were not drugged, 1 of them had a elastic band around his beak, the other one was more calm. I think some how they knew they were no longer in danger. The one that was between us, after we try to give him some food, he slowly and softy was touching @evecab's shoulder with his beak, like kind of saying "give me more".

Good news is that today I had a phone call with the Regional Director of the Environmental Department, the toucans are safe and they will keep them until their wings grow back so they can go back to the rain-forest.

Thank you so much for caring and expressing your thoughts.
