Sugar gliders

These little marsupials have become trendy on internet. They are similar to hamsters, although with marsupials we must be very careful, and watch them closely.

Sugar gliders are very cute animals and always need to be with animals of the same species; if they live alone, they can suffer from depression or become self-injuring. They are also nocturnal, so they like to sleep all day.

People look for them as pets because of their nice character, their longevity and their manageable size. But even if they are quite meek and quiet, they need a special exotic diet, such as larvae and insects, and space to make them happy as their natural habitat is the treetops where they should be!
