Squirrel glider (Petaurus norfolcensis)
The squirrel glider is a nocturnal gliding possum. This species’ home range extends from Bordertown near the South Australian/Victorian Border through south-eastern Australia to northern Queensland. The squirrel glider lives in the dry sclerophyll forest and woodlands. In Queensland, however, they occupy a wetter eucalypt forest. The glider will make a den in the hollow tree and line it with leaves. Here it will sleep and usually lives in groups of one male, 2 females, and offspring.The squirrel glider eats mostly fruit and insects.
