looks like she has no tail and only one back leg..

poor baby. she seems to be handling it fine though.

She was sourced from a nearby rescue who was hoping that a little light would be shed on their needs for these abandoned and neglected animals.

the host of this show is annoying

What was that, a hermit crab cage? They should have gotten a pouch or traveling cage, not something that you put hermit crabs in! :(

[QueenoftheDookie]

It never fails to amaze me the vast amounts of idiots that comment on youtube videos

Fucking plastic cage!!

@JosieC84 A logical individual would realize that they were in that small container purely for the segment on the show. I will agree that both of these guys are morons, but you sir take the cake. Generalizing a nation based on a sugar glider video is ridiculous. I've traveled all over the world. Where are you from? I bet people are perfect where you live. PISSANT!

@yayandstuff Actually, YOU'RE the stupid one. Sugar Gliders are one of our national icons and they're protected here in Australia. Read it up, idiot.

and yes I know a lot of Americans take great care of them but i've also seen plenty of videos' of gliders being mistreated.

[yayandstuff]

@JosieC84 Sugar Gliders are pests in Australia. Most "selfish yanks" take great care of their sugar gliders. You know so much by going off this one video. Stupid Australian.

@jjameers

i have 2 healthy sugar gliders and there not hard to care for once a month i make a bml diet that takes 5 mins to make. its the smell that some ppl cant stand but if u wash everything often then they dont stink. my two are awake during days from12am till like 2pm i just keep them in a closet i have empty for there cage

[jjameers]

They CAN"T be fooled into sleeping at night and its not good to try! Sugar gliders need alot of time and space. Not even close to a hamster they are an Exotic Animals and should be treated that way. What an idiot!!

@TheSilverx8 i was just thinknig that

[MrBlayneRs]

@JosieC84 Some People take great care of these animals and are really dedicated to caring for them not everyone should be punished for a few peoples mistakes and I agree the container is not sufficient for these gliders even for a few hours but again not everyone should be punished by not being able to have one of the magnificent animals

[JosieC84]

Those poor sugar gliders, being trapped in a small container. Now this is why they shouldn't be bred as pets in the USA. You Americans don't even look after them well at all.

SHAME ON YOU, SELFISH YANKS!!!!
