Sugar Gliders are small marsupials related to the American opossum but often compared to flying squirrels. Sugar Gliders, as the name suggests, like sweet foods (eating sap, fruits, and insects in the wild) and have a membrane connecting their forelimbs and back legs that acts as a hang-glider or parachute for navigating tree canopies. As pets sugar gliders require constant handling and bonding time and make larger messes than animals five times their size! They enjoy pouches and crawling beneath clothing, which illustrates their social nature and marsupial affiliation. Sugar gliders are more work than one might guess and should not be adopted lightly.
