Arboreal locomotion large perches in uncluttered environments. Many species of animals are arboreal, far too many to list individually. This list is of prominently or predominantly arboreal species and higher taxa. Arboreal locomotion Arboreal locomotion is the locomotion of animals in trees. In habitats in which trees are present, animals have evolved to move in them. Some animals may scale trees only occasionally, but others are exclusively arboreal.

Furthermore, many of these same
Lesser sooty owl rats, but occasionally eat arboreal animals like birds and squirrel gliders. Lesser sooty owls live long and have low production rates with a breeding season from January to August. They are classified as common even though they have a limited habitat range. Lesser sooty owls are protected animals under Australian law.
