He would catch fish and then climb back out and go back home.

Yeah I have heard about this story too. We have our lids sealed very tight so that he isn't able to escape, I wouldn't doubt that he would figure out how to squeeze through a hole. The hole needs to be larger than the beak and that's it.

What is the lifespan of these big guys? It's kinda sadly short, isn't it?

Thanks! You are right, they only live up to five years old. While longer than the little tropical guys still makes me kind of sad.
