Flying squirrels have a specialized membrane of skin called a patagium that stretches from their wrists to their ankles, allowing them to glide through the air. They are nocturnal and have keen eyesight, good hearing, and strong claws to help them find food and avoid predators. They build nests high in trees and hibernate during the winter to conserve energy.
