Sugar gliders are marsupials; the young are born very immature and grow in a pouch on the mother's abdomen. Sugar gliders have furry membranes that extend from their wrists to their ankles (the membrane is called a patagium) that allows them to glide through the air.In the wild they move from tree to tree by gliding.ugar gliders are marsupials; the young are born very immature and grow in a pouch on the mother's abdomen.
