Sugar gliders, which are native to Australia, survive by sheltering in tree hollows in their native habitat. They live in rainforests and bushland (both wet and dry sclerophyll forest), and can adapt to both cool-temperate climates, such as that found in Tasmania, and warmer, humid climates of northern Australia. They are healthiest in drier bushland rather than moist rainforest.
In their native environment, sugar gliders feed on tree sap, nectar, some fruits and a variety of small insects such as mealworms, beetles, crickets, grasshoppers, lerps and moths. They prefer sap and resin from trees such as eucalyptus (gum trees) and acacia (wattle).
