#Toucan
That flying game is precious. I guess you could say that you tou-can have a lot of fun together.

@@TheTmaaan55 Come back. I like the bird puns.
Get out
I’m eating papaya and some yam steamer and some blueberries just like you and see is so cute Zima❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😘😍🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😘😘🙏🏻🙏🏻🐥🐥😇😇😍🥰😘😚😊😊😮😂😂❤🎉
It's so good to see her settling in. She looks so much more comfortable now :)
I'm so happy for her
I can hear your stress and disgust with her previous owners.
@@slashieboy Some rescue centres don't like doing that - if bad owners know they'll be prosecuted, they are less likely to come forward with sick animals. Sometimes an attitude of "give us the animal and we'll say no more about it" is the best way to help the animal.
If you think thats bad I've seen another Keen Billed mistreat that another toucan rescuer had taken in. Keen Billed are so common when it comes to smuggled toucans.
Poor baby! Hopefully modern avian medicine can get and then keep her healthy! She's a very pretty bird and I look forward to her getting bigger and more beautiful!
I think you did the right thing in choosing to rebreak her leg. I think in the long run it will be much better for her even if she's gonna be in a good bit of pain for a bit. Better than life long discomfort
Agreed 100%. She is precious and deserves the best quality of life. I'm glad you're able to give her that opportunity.
Poor thing. I can never understand why someone would want to own a living thing yet refuses to care for them properly.
I'm so happy she found such a loving home ❤️❤️❤️ That pretend flying is just too cute! 😍
I fully support your plan to fix Zeema's leg. If she were elderly, or had major other issues (chronic, not the fixable like the bacterial infection) I would say leave it.. but people did the damage to her that left her disabled, and she deserves the chance to live the best life she can. So people need to fix it. I know from having had 13 myself, pain from surgery is temporary and can do immeasurable amounts of good in the long run.
Someone gave baby toucan a thumbs down? Like, why? You work for fruit loops competition or something?
Theirs always at least 1 jerk that shows up.
They could be on mobile and hit the wrong button. That happens to me sometimes.
I love the practice flying! I didn’t know toucans were so playful; I love how educational your videos are ❤️.
Her hopping around is so cute!! She looks happy but I do hope her condition will improve more!
I do that flying thing with my parrot. He's a rescue and he mutilates his feathers and cannot fly so I do that so he can expend his energy and maintain his muscles.
Your enthusiasm is contagious Jessi!!!
Zeema is going to lead a healthy and happy life at Animal Wonders :)
THATS THE CUTEST BABY ANIMAL IVE EVER SEEN!!!! WHY IS SHE SO PRECIOUS AND CURIOUS AND FLUFFY AND COLORFUL. I hope her issues get resolved poor baby
You have a truly beautiful gift with animals. I just love watching you with ALL the animals, birds etc & I admire you enormously. ❤

Zeema is beautiful
When do you think that whale will grow it’s primary feathers so it can fly by itself.
The important question.
I read this before I watched the video, so I thought you mistyped and everyone acted like you didn't.
I love her so much!! She's so small and energetic it's adorable! Watching her pretend to fly while you ran her around the room - made my day! I wish her the best of health :)
The pretend flying! My heart!
♪♫♬ Shake your tail feathers! ♪♫♬
I think the rebreak is the right idea. She's young, and 15 years with it healed right is worth a few months of injury recovery, I was happy you guys went that way. Especially with the level of care she's got at AWM, I think she'd be likely to be up and going in no time.
I love seeing her with those blueberries! With each one it's like "Am I going to eat this? This little tiny thing? Heck yeah! (Gulp)"
Bless. I had a rescue pigeon with an injured leg, I used to do flying games with her to help her fly too. People don't realise how integrated a bird's anatomy is, everything finely tuned to work together. Seeing you flying with the toucan and with your daughter and the whale is so cute. Bless. ✌😊🐦
Hope she has a great life in animal wonders despite her physical disabilities. God bless people like u Jessie❤️❤️❤️😊
If you guys are really passionate about your job and are not just good to the animals on camera, then honestly you're all the best. It made me a bit emotional how kind you just were to the toucan in need, and all the accommodations you made to make it feel at home. I promise you if I get enough money when I'm a bit older with a job, I will donate a lot of money for this altruism. Anyone can just feed the pet and give it medicine, but what you did was something more. I can't express my gratitude enough, so keep doing what you're doing.
Jesse is such a sweet mom to all the animals and birds she care for. She's so much of a role model to me (coming from the same initial career background, film making).
I'm no more saving for a house of my own and hope one day I can afford to buy a piece of land to care for all these wonderful creatures. Went to get a German shepherd pup and brought back few birds to care for. It's a lot of work and patience but they make my life so cheerful. Feels like I have a purpose in life. I'm learning slowly. I hope everything will fall in place.
Lots of respect for Jesse & the team.
Watching that baby toucan pretend fly made my heart SO incredibly happy!!
Vinegar was our cleaner of choice in the animal care facilities I worked in. LOL, its a great cleaner but it makes me hungry for potato chips. You're taking great care of this lovely girl.
I was given the leg choice with both my girls (tiels). Molly it was he wing, I chose not to rebreak her wing due to her already having issues with her bones and it would be a hard healing process and if she fell her legs would break. For Spirit it was her leg and hip, after a lot of talk with the vet we agreed that the surgery would not have helped much as she still had movement on her feet and could hold a perch safely. With softbills though their legs are so vital for movement and she's still young and will heal well, I think it's the right choice.
She is so cute! It’s great to see her thriving now.
Great video. She's adorable and I hope she continues to recover. Your daughter's flying whale is also cute lol.
Toucans are fun-loving but mischievous little creatures.
I'm learning so much! I've always assumed toucans had hard bills like parrots or hornbills.
With her being so young and surrounded by your family, it looks like she has an amazing trust bond with you already!
And your daughter "flying" her whale was the cuteness icing on this adorable cake!
I just discovered your channel yesterday and went thru about 20 videos so far, I just love what your accomplishing for animals and want to congratulate you on your great job, keep up to good work!
Wow! You've really shown how much you care about your animals with Zeema. She came to you in rough shape and you're doing a great job taking care of her and giving her everything she needs for a happy life. It looks like a lot of work; kudos to you for doing all that and taking care of all the other critters!
It's so precious when she starts flapping her wings!
She's so adorable I love her. It's a hard choice with her leg, but I think if you're able to heal it, then the pain would be worth her being able to play and live a better life in the long run. Especially since she's so young.
Thanks for bringing a big smile to my face!!!
She is such a precious little girl. Thank you so much for all you are doing for her. This beautiful baby deserves all the love and care she is given.
Zeema is the zeemaest!
Awww when you help Zima pretend fly it is so heart warming and precious 😊💓💕
The pretend flying is so sweet! I have had a leg bone broken and reshaped so I know what sweet little Zeema is about to go through.
She is so young and even though wounds may take longer to heal on birds, I think it is the absolute right decision to re-break her leg in hopes of that way giving her the freedom of movement and life she deserves. You're taking so good care of her, I'm happy for her she's with you :)
I was secretly hoping the rebreak was an option. It sounds awful but given the same set of circumstances, Id do the same for myself if it meant having a more functional life.
Zeema is so pweeeetty :3 There used to be a toucan at my local pet shop. It was on display for a while, and I would often stop by just to admire her, then one day she was gone. I was so sad :( Still am. I miss seeing it in person.
So glad to see her doing better! I hope she continues to improve and makes as much of a recovery as she can. You guys flying around put a smile on my face!
What those previous owners did to her makes me so upset. My heart goes out to her, that she will get more accustomed to living like this, until she gets better.
Aww man I’m rooting for her so hard. I’m counting down the months until I finish school and am able to get a good job so I can send in support to awesome people/business like y’all.
wish she hadn't been through so much physical trauma already at such a young age but I'm so thankful she made it into your caring hands. the pretend flying is so precious!
It's good to see how well Zeema is developing. I wish her all the best for the future and that she makes even more progress. Can't wait to see her fly. And also, thanks for another great episode
I got to hold Zema today and feed her blueberries.
It was so good to meet you today! Thanks for helping give Zeema a fun time!
Came across this video after learning the sad news that Ripley the toucan has passed away 😿. Zeema's activities have put a much needed smile on my face 😼
Zeema is adorable..I hope she recovers from her respiratory infection and finally gets the rebrake surgery she needs so she can eventually walk again. Thanks Jessi ..Hope your family had a very Merry Christmas and Wishing you all a very Happy And Health New Year!
Zeema practicing flying is the cutest thing I have seen all day
OMG!!! Zima is the cutest! I love that puppy like energy
"We pretend fly and my daughter and her stuffed *whale* join us."
This about had me rolling on the floor
Im so glad that people like you and your family exist! Zima is living the good life thanks to you guys :)
I'm praying for Zeema, and I think it was a good call to re-break the leg to give her the best chance of a normal life as possible. She looks very well loved :)
Zeema is so beautiful! I’m sorry she’s had such a difficult start in life, but she’s clearly in loving and knowledgeable hands now and that’s the important thing.
Poor sweet baby having to take all that medicine. I'm so glad she still has her appetite and is playing!
You two are the cutest pair ❤️
Oh no poor Zima! But also you running around so she can pretend fly is the CUTEST thing I’ve ever seen 😍 Glad she has such a great home with you at Animal Wonders! And I hope her respiratory infection clears up soon!!
Such a sweetheart! She has such a great energy, and I hope she gets better soon
So happy to see this update! She's amazing and you're amazing for what you've done for her! That enclosure set up is so awesome and it's so good to see her so playful and getting the best care possible!
What a sweet, sweet baby!!!
this is both, cute and very informative. Wholesome and educational. Love the work you do, love Zeema.
Being so young, I think a re-break is a good choice. She will heal much better from it due to her age, and even if the process ends up failing, she is still young enough to adapt.
The work you do is so valuable. And it's so good to see the joy in what you do!
Arwh...she seems very smart and affectionate! Hope she comes through her operation ok.
Ugh I love her so much and how you interact with her. So fantastic
Omg the practice flying is soooo cute.
I really admire your love for animals and dedication to them. Thanks for your inspirational videos. Greetings from Mexico
Oh my goodness! I am 100% in love 😍 with Zeema! Oh my heart ❤️! I’m not normally a bird person, but I have to say, she is my all time FAV of yours!
Oh she is just precious!
The pretend flying is the cutest!!!
You are one of this rare gifts to the animal world 👍
Shes adorable! I loved seeing her watch you clean...she was so intrigued 😂😍
she is so adorable and smart, I would lay down and die for her
Awwww I love her with all my heart
5:48 lol, I thought that was a computer!
This video was pretty informational, love it! Love learning about unique creatures!
This was so sweet to watch! She looks like a very happy bird, thank you for the update! I'm already looking forward to the next. :)
the flying exercise at the end was so cute
Zeema is gorgeous, I'm so happy she's found great people to care for her. Love from the UK xx
I hope she heals quickly and gets her leg fixed, I’m sorry that her prior owners were so awful to cut off all of her primary feathers and they probably broke her leg too. Some people should never have pets or be allowed to be around animals. You do a great job with the birds and I really enjoy your channel
I hope she gets well soon! It must be hard for you to make that decision, I hope everything goes well. You guys are so inspiring, thank you so much ❤️
Will her primary feathers grow back?
Yes, in his next molt
It may take a few molts, birds don't molt their primary feathers every time that they molt and sometimes with a clip job that severe, new primary feathers will break as they come in because they aren't fully supported by other feathers. With a clip job that severe it can take up to 3 years for some birds to fully regain their flight feathers but if they're lucky it can be just one year. This birdo may be extra lucky because she's a baby still and babies go through several molts in their first year of life (unlike adults who usually molt just once or twice a year) so those extra molts might give her a much needed boost.
A molt is when a bird sheds their feathers and grows new ones, usually not all at once, but enough that all the feathers will eventually be replaced. Then she’ll be able to fly again!
@corral reaf Molting is when a bird loses some of their feathers and new feathers grow in to replace them, the new feathers come in as "pin feathers" which have a protective sheath around them, once the feather is mature the sheath will flake off as the bird preens itself and the new feather will unfurl from within the sheath, no feathers last forever so birds need to molt regularly. It's just like how snakes shed their skin and us humans are constantly shedding dead skin cells and growing new ones, because that's how we heal :)
Fabled Thunder yup she will
This is such a lovely bonding such an! She has such an adorable and a lively personality and I wish the best for her!
Oh my goodness Jessie she's amazing!
I love your videos so much! You can see that you have a lot of passion for the animals you take care of. All of your video's are a joy to watch. Keep up the good work ^^
What a darling! She seems to have such a wonderful personality. She’s not letting anything stop her!
It was good to see her, and two of your kids too. (caught a glimpse of one of your boys too).
Great to hear back about her! And I think you are making the right call on the re-break thing. And it was the flying thing with your daughter was just the sweetest thing hahaha
I wonder if Zeema knows she could fly. I hope she get's her feathers back and discovery flying!
"Wheee this is so much better than hopping!"
That was so uplifting. Thank you for all the good (& hard) work that you do!o
She's so adorable! I wish her best!
I say this on so many of your videos but I love your voice and how articulate you are. You also have a lovely sunny house! I'm now working with an exotic rescue! It makes me think of you and this channel! Please keep doing what you're doing. And thank you so much!
Thank you! And that's great to hear you're working with animals that need your love and care!
@@animalwondersmontana You not only rescue animals, but also educate people about them. That's what we're doing too! I love the way places like yours are run! We're looking to expand into an actual facility to have more room to do presentations and classes in our own building :)
I really hope that she can get better soon so that you all can try to make her life better with the procedure!
I love her!!! She is so beautiful! hope all goes well with her leg 💛💛💛💛
Wow the assisted flying is one of the cutest things I've ever seen. So nice ♥️
I love updates on the birds. Zeema is a cutie. I hope she gets better.
Fascinating to see her eat.
Who is more work - the kids or Kemosabe?
I wish you and her all the very best and a happy and healthy 2019!
Even with her challenges, she is looking a lot better. Good work and good luck!
Awww zeema is so cute i love her new home
I know, Zeema isn’t a parrot-type bird, but once she’s healthy will she be housed with Animal Wonders’ other exotic birds? Would they be able to provide some of the companionship she needs later on, or will she remain in her enclosure in your house?
Toucans can actually be dangerous to other birds that are smaller than them. So instead of providing social companionship they would possibly be viewed as prey, and the little parrots might feel threatened.
We are also keeping her separate because our parrots are positive for ABV and we don't want to expose Zeema to it. Once Zeema kicks the respiratory infection we'll get her into the vet for the leg operation and when she's under anesthesia we'll take a blood sample for lab work to see if she already carries the virus. That will help us know if we can reduce our quarantine procedures, or keep them up. It's just a waiting game right now. We're quite anxious to move forward but we have to wait until she's completely strong and healthy.
