## Resource

A green aracari named Beauregard at the Birmingham Zoo got a custom beak prosthetic after losing part of his beak as a baby—thanks to a creative team of zoo vets and human dentists who designed a lightweight, color-matched replacement. Now eleven months old, Beauregard’s flying, eating, and socializing like normal, proving how innovation and collaboration can help even the most unlikely patients thrive.
