Flying lemurs mating in the forests of Borneo

A male flying lemur scampers around a tree trunk and mounts the female. Some serious biting and screaming follows, along with a few affectionate kisses as the evening's business draws to a close. Following the mating ritual, the female lifts its kite-shaped tail and takes a fruity dump, revealing a tiny baby clinging to its belly.

The flying lemur's tail is joined to its hind limbs which allows it to glide from tree to tree. This clip was shot at Bako National Park in Sarawak, Malaysia where flying lemurs are commonly seen around the chalets at the park headquarters. During the day the flying lemurs cling to the side of trees, as darkness falls they become active and launch gliding forays into the rainforest.

its Momo! I had no idea he was based on an actually real life animal. Though Momo could actually fly i believe. Flying lemurs can only glide. Strange how until now I never knew these existed.

flying lemur, colugo?,what's all the fuss?. Spotting it in the trees is already a challenge, capturing it on video while mating must have been exhilarating!!. A wonderful animal. Pesut thanks for sharing the video.
