Pet Sugar Glider Care, Information, Facts & Pictures

Sugar gliders are native to Australia, Tasmania, Indonesia and Papua-New Guinea. Their descriptive name comes from their love of sweet foods and a membrane that allows them to glide. Sugar gliders are marsupials which means that they raise their young in a pouch on the mother's belly. They are small mammals and adults weigh between 4 and 5 ounces.
