Hi Alice, according to Wikipedia, this little one could glide as long as 60m (recorded), over which the animal loses only 10m in height, which is quite some distance, considering that one of these lizards is only around 20 cm long.
Thankyou ctsetan, with your assistance, this cutie got an ID now :)

Can he jump long distances with that wide body?
