Short and Stout

The keel-billed toucan is a very colorful bird in the Amazon rainforest that eats roots, berries, and nuts. After 1,000 years of evolution, the keel-billed toucan will have mated with the toco toucan to assimilate to more neutral colors for camouflage. Over time, this dulls the colors and blends their traits into a bird with mixed traits of the two. The toucan will acquire short, large feet with long talons because due to deforestation, it now will have to live on the ground. It will also acquire a shorter, more curved, and jagged bill so that it can eat small animals, due to lack of plants.
