Sugar glider

The video introduces the sugar glider, a forest-dwelling animal known for its unique gliding ability. It explains how the sugar glider spends most of its life in trees and moves between them by leaping and gliding. The sugar glider uses large skin flaps to glide through the air, covering distances up to 50 meters. By adjusting its tail and legs, it can change direction mid-air to land accurately on trees.
