"Hi, my name is Elizabeth and I'm representing Expert Village and what I'm going to show you how to do today, is how to medicate a Sugar Glider if you ever have to medicate one. The best way is you'll use a little fleece to grab a hold of your Sugar Glider like this. You'll grab either side of their head and you'll use your administrating syringe here and bring the liquid to their lips. Put it right behind their tongue and give it slowly so the animal doesn't choke. You just keep holding him here and giving it so. The other things that you can do if they won't take the medication, is you can try mixing it in with a little yogurt or honey and a lot of these animal will take the medication willingly. If it doesn't taste quite so bad as in the case with this one."
