What types of vertebrate the sugar glider?

A sugar glider is a small, nocturnal marsupial of the possum family (not opossums) about 16cm-21cm in length, and native to Australia, as well as some islands of Indonesia and New Guinea. Sugar gliders live about 12-15 years in captivity, and 1-6 years in the wild, due to predation by other animals. They have black-tipped tails, a black line down their back, (ending with an arrow on the head) and have 1-3 joeys at a time. They come in a variety of colors, including albino (very rare), cinnamon, red-brown and, most commonly, grey. Like other gliders, sugar gliders are unique in that they have a membrane of skin - patagia-membrane - which stretches from the fifth "finger" of each hand to the first toe of each foot, which enables them to glide between treetops. They do not fly, but are capable of gliding up to 100m.
