WHY YOU
CAN TRUST NASGA TM
As Sugar Gliders
become more and more popular as household pets, it also
becomes increasingly important that new owners have a TRULY
independent source where they can get OBJECTIVE information.
Unlike ANY other website, chatroom or message-board
dedicated to Sugar Gliders, the North American Sugar Glider
Association� (NASGA�) �sells� NOTHING � directly or
indirectly to our members. We also do not accept �links� or
advertisements of any kind.
Sugar Gliders can make wonderful pets,
but like any animal, they are not for everyone. As such, our
only goal is to provide potential new owners with CREDIBLE
information they can use to make the BEST possible decision
for their families.

Here's some
random info we thought was a lot
of fun. For instance, |

did you

-
Sugar Gliders are
marsupials, the same family
as kangaroos and koala
bears.
-
Since they are marsupials,
female Sugar Gliders have a
pouch on their belly where
they raise their babies for
two and a half months after
they are born.
-
Male Sugar Gliders go bald!
Actually, they just have one
bald spot on their head,
which is really a scent
gland.
-
Sugar Gliders can glide up
to 45 meters (148.5 ft.) and
can even catch moths while
they glide?
-
Because of the way Sugar
Gliders stand up and make
loud noises to intimidate
potential predators, they
are sometimes called Sugar
Bears?
-
Sugar Gliders' hands AND
feet each have four fingers
and opposable thumbs
-
Sugar Gliders' fingers and
toes are sharp like hooks.
This lets them hook onto
lots of surfaces (as long as
they aren't too slick!).
