Sugar gliders, like other gliders, are special because of the way they glide. They glide by means of skin membranes. They have a membrane of skin which stretches from their wrists to their ankles, which enables them to glide between treetops. They do not fly but, depending upon the species, gliders are generally capable of gliding a distance of between 50m and 80m. They must always launch out from higher points such as treetops or power poles.

Why are sugar gliders in danger?

Sugar gliders are quite common. There is always the danger of man invading the sugar gliders natural habitat, and destroying it's home land. That is probably the greatest threat to gliders in the wild. In captivity, some gliders are still suffering due to their owners lack of knowledge about this special companion. Gliders can suffer many health problems if not fed the proper diet, socialized, and not given enough room to exercise properly.

Sugar bears are actually sugar gliders. Female sugar gliders have a pouch, whereas male sugar gliders do not. Male sugar gliders have "poms", whereas female sugar gliders do not.
