There are approximately 50 different species of Flying Squirrels found throughout the world. One interesting fact is that despite their name, they don’t actually fly at all. The reason why they were named Flying Tree Squirrels may simply be because they appear to be flying when in fact they are really gliding from tree to tree. 

There is a furry membrane, called a patagium, between the front and back legs that the Flying Squirrel uses as a parachute when it glides. It is able to steer by using this membrane as a wing and adjusting it accordingly.The flat tail is used for balance on branches and stabilization when flying. If need be, it can also safely break-away from its body without any fatal consequences.

Base jumpers and skydivers have developed a special suit that mimics the flying squirrel. The suit works to slow their descent and allows them to maneuver through the air.
