Red Giant Flying Squirrel

Petaurista petaurista

Description:

These can be seen pretty easily in Sepilok (Sabah, Borneo). There is a platform walkway where they can be watched from the tree tops. Usually, they'll be jumping and "flying" from tree to tree around dusk.

I was in Sepilok many years ago, I didn't know these could be spotted easily there. Next time! Thanks Chris.
