A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Galeopterus variegatus
The Sunda Flying Lemur is not a lemur and does not really fly. Instead, it glides as it leaps among trees. It is strictly arboreal, is active at night, and feeds on soft plant parts such as young leaves, shoots, flowers, and fruits
Strictly arboreal and forest-dependent.
Female and young can be clearly seen. Offspring is carried on the mother's abdomen held by a large skin membrane
