Sugar gliders are not permitted to be kept as pets in Australia, the country to which they are native. Australians value their native animals, especially delicate ones like sugar gliders, and it is illegal to keep them in captivity.

No, but any individual who wants to legally import a sugar glider into Illinois must obtain a letter from the Director of DNR to allow the importation. When requesting to obtain a letter to import a sugar glider into Illinois, you must provide a veterinarian health certificate that states the animal is disease free and a statement that every attempt is made to assure the animal does not escape into the wild. An authorization letter may be obtained by writing the Division of Wildlife Resources, Illinois Department of Natural Resources, 524 S. 2nd St., Springfield, IL 62701-1787.

No, sugar gliders are legal in Missouri.

Except for federally-designated endangered species and species listed in 9.240, the following may be bought, sold, possessed, transported and exhibited without permit: bison, amphibians, reptiles and mammals not native to Missouri and those birds (except ring-necked and Korean pheasants and gray partridges) not native to the continental United States.

It depends on one's locality. Certain states in the USA permit sugar gliders to be kept as pets.

Note: In Australia, the sugar glider's country of origin, it is illegal to have a sugar glider as a pet. Sugar gliders are protected native animals.

No. As far as I've researched they have said that sugar gliders are acceptable in Kansas. You might contact the Kansas Dept of Health to check.

Do sugar gliders like tree leaves and bark?

This seems to depend on the type of leaves and bark given to the sugar glider, and of course the individual sugar glider. My own gliders love eucalyptus leaves, but I know of many gliders that do not. Before you attempt to introduce any sort of leaves and bark to your sugar gliders, please be sure that it is not toxic, and that it has been properly cared for (no pesticides).

Can you leave other sugar gliders in with baby sugar gliders?

The parents of the sugar glider should stay with the baby for at least 8 weeks, if that is what you're asking. In their natural state, sugar gliders may live in a group of up to seven adults and their young, which form a 'clan', sharing a nest. The young joeys learn to socialise with the other young, playing with them, but also learn to be fiercely defensive of their own territory. Whether this works when sugar gliders are being kept in captivity in a tiny cage is uncertain.
