“On the plus side you’ll never have to take him walkies. On the minus side you may have to duck when you walk into the living room. Sugar gliders, you see, like to spread their wings, if you can call them that. A species of possum native to Australia and New Guinea, they have a stretchy membrane across their backs that lets them launch themselves and glide for up to 200ft… And they are flying off the pet shop shelves.” w/ photos
