  1. flying phalanger

    A flying phalanger, also known as possum or glider, is a small nocturnal marsupial native to Australia and New Guinea. It is known for its ability to sail or glide through the air over distances of up to roughly 100 meters, using a thin skin membrane stretched between its legs. Its diet typically consists of insects, tree sap, nectar, pollen and seeds. Despite their name, flying phalangers do not actually fly, but instead glide from tree to tree.
