Sugar gliders diet in the wild consists of eucalyptus,sap and nectar,also bugs and sometimes baby birds..They are mostly sap suckers.
Sugar gliders are omnivores. In their native environment, sugar gliders feed on tree sap, nectar, some fruits and a variety of small insects such as mealworms, beetles, crickets, grasshoppers, lerps and moths. They prefer sap and resin from trees such as eucalyptus (gum trees) and acacia (wattle).

They prefer sap and resin from trees such as eucalyptus (gum trees) and acacia (wattle). Sugar gliders hunt and feed at night. They find much of their food on the trees they inhabit, but have been known to catch insects on the "run", using their gliding membrances as they leap out and catch food.
Sugar gliders are omnivores. Their diet consists largely of sweet tree sap, nectar, fruit and flowers, but they also enjoy insects.

Sugar gliders' favourite food is that which occurs in their natural habitat: tree sap, nectar, some fruits and a variety of small insects such as mealworms, beetles, crickets, grasshoppers, lerps and moths. They prefer sap and resin from trees such as eucalyptus (gum trees) and acacia (wattle).
Yes, sugar gliders (Petaurus breviceps) eat raisins.Specifically, in the wild, sugar gliders eat insects and small vertebrates and drink the sap of trees in the genuses Eucalyptus and Acacia. In captivity, they need to be fed a very specific diet of which 50 percent is made up fruits and vegetables and 50 percent of protein and insects. As long as the previously listed needs are met, sugar gliders also may be given treats, such as yogurt, whole wheat bread, tofu, raisins, healthy non-sugary cereals, and apple sauce.
...They're not the same. Maple trees are like regular trees and pine trees are Christmas trees. Maple trees produce syrup that you can eat. Where-as pine trees make sap but you can't eat that.

Sap is a liquid that is sticky and has sugar in it, in scientific forms. BUT, do not eat it!
pine pitch is sap. sticky gooey sap. pine pitch.
Sugar gliders like eucalyptus trees for several reasons.Eucalyptus trees are tall and straight, and difficult for predators to climb. Sugar gliders can nest in the hollows high up in eucalyptus trees and, because these trees are so high, easily glide from tree to tree without ever having to come down to the ground.Eucalyptus trees are a good source of food for sugar gliders. These little marsupials prefer sap and resin from trees such as eucalyptus and acacia (wattle), and nectar from the flowers. In addition, the trees often have other foods that sugar gliders eat in their native environment, such as small insects like mealworms, beetles, crickets, grasshoppers, lerps and moths.
