No, a flying squirrel is a mammal.
There are five species of tree squirrels live in Wisconsin: the gray squirrel, fox squirrel, red squirrel, and two species of flying squirrels.
Flying squirrels typically inhabit forests with dense vegetation, especially areas with plenty of trees for nesting and gliding. They prefer mature forests with a good supply of nuts, seeds, and insects for food. Flying squirrels are nocturnal and like to nest in tree cavities or build nests in the canopy.
Answer is No
Mostly on foot! Flying squirrels do not "fly" - they glide. Once at a tree height they like (which they achieve by climbing that same way any squirrel does) they can "glide" from tree to tree all night.
No. When they stretch all four legs out, a fold of skin stretches from front leg to back leg on each side. This gives the squirrel the ability, not to fly, but to glide from tree to tree.
A Mammal. It is a squirrel. I had 3 pet flying squirrels when I was young.
