Pangolin beautiful. Sadly it’s one of the most poached animals in Africa. China uses the scales in so called medicine. Such ignorance is beyond comprehension.

Loved them all and I was fortunate to see and hold a sugar glider...they certainly are quick little fellows and so soft and sweet.

They were truly adorable! Wonder if a person can make any of them pets? Wouldn’t mind having a couple of them as pets.

I used to have a sugar glider as a pet. Her name was Willow and she was the sweetest little thing. She loved to snuggle up in the pocket of my hoodie if I was wearing one or climb up on top of my head and see how far she could leap! And she loved cheese puffs. When she wanted attention, she would bark like a puppy. She died a couple of years ago and I really miss her.

cwisconsin, I have seen many flying squirrels. We rescued about a dozen or so in my childhood. We would raise them until they could feed themselves and then release them back to where we found them. Spent every summer living in the forest so we rescued many different animals including a baby porcupine. Again, all were released back to the forest once they could forage for themselves. It was a great adventure every day plus we got to help those animals that needed help.
