Great hornbill (Buceros bicornis)

One of the larger hornbill species in Peninsular Malaysia, this bird is predominantly frugivorous and inhabits both primary and secondary forests. Its most striking feature is the bright yellow casque atop its massive beak. Viewed from the front, the casque has a distinct U-shape with a concave top and two ridges along the sides that form pointed ends at the front.
