Flying Squirrel

The Flying Squirrel is a small nocturnal mammal characterized by a furry membrane called a patagium that stretches between its front and hind limbs, allowing it to glide through the air. It has a soft, dense fur ranging from gray to brown on its back, with a white or cream-colored underside. The Flying Squirrel possesses large, round eyes adapted for low-light conditions and a bushy tail that aids in steering while gliding. It primarily feeds on a diet of nuts, seeds, fruits, and insects and is known for its agile and acrobatic movements in the forest canopy.
