Flying lemurs, also known as colugos, are specialized mammals known for their remarkable ability to glide through the forest canopy. They possess a large patagium, a membrane of skin that stretches between their limbs and tail, allowing them to cover significant distances while gliding. These nocturnal creatures primarily feed on leaves, fruits, and flowers, showcasing adaptations for a folivorous diet. Despite their name, they are not true lemurs and are more closely related to primates and tree shrews.
