BIRDS STOLEN!
2 Pair of Toco Toucans and 1 pair of Keel Bill Toucans ( aka Sulphur
Breasted) were stolen from a breeding facility in Ocala, Florida
between 10:00 - 10:30pm Monday night October 8th.
They were stolen from Helen Wilson,
Ocala, Florida
This is her description of them:
We live in Northern Central Fl., to be exact, Ocala . They were taken
from our bird breeding area between 10:00pm and 10:30pm Monday night.
The one pair of Toco's has open leg bands and the male to that pair,
has a marked up beak from hollowing out the coconut log. This pair
will fly to you and are very, very tame. The other pair of Toco's are
not friendly and do not like eye to eye contact. The keels are also
very friendly. Please contact everybody you know. Thank you, The
Wilson's
Please let anyone you know about this theft. Together we can find
them and get them back!

thats sad that someone would go in and take something thats not theres, hopefully they will be found and returned

[Rosie]

I don't understand why people do that, its sad... I don't live anywhere near there but I wish them good luck in finding the birds

[Aly]

That's sad- hope they are ok...Someone in my mom's neighborhood stole a macaw a few months ago...it's so stupid of people to do things like that...

How sad, those poor birds will be so upset to be taken out of their familiar surroundings.

I would think birds like toucans would have very particular needs as well. It's awful the things some people in this world do. :(
