Building a Beak: How a Toucan’s Rescue Inspired the World

Description

在叢林裡，巨嘴鳥葛瑞希亞喜歡從一根樹枝飛躍到另一根，為雨林所有生物獻唱。直到某夜，樹林中響起吵雜聲，棍棒石塊飛舞，葛瑞希亞從心愛的酪梨樹上墜落，悲劇性地撞斷了鳥喙。

In the wild, Grecia the toucan loved to soar from branch to branch and sing for all the creatures of the rainforest. Until, one night, loud voices echoed through the trees, sticks and rocks flew, and Grecia fell from her favorite avocado tree, tragically breaking her beak.

She was unable to move. Unable to sing.
Animal rescuers examined Grecia and found that she needed a new beak to survive. Though no one had ever made a toucan beak before, Grecia’s determination to live drove their search for a creative solution―an innovative 3D-printed beak. As news of her story spread, people of all ages around the world came together, finding their own ways to help Grecia sing again.
