Galesburg Wildlife Trapper Tip of the Month:
Can a Flying Squirrel actually fly?Introduction

Flying, the ability that the birds are god gifted with, is an entirely different thing. For years, these northern flying (gliding) squirrels have confused human beings about their ability to move from one tree (about 20 meters from another) to another tree smoothly. It is a question of keen focus and understanding of how they do this. The internet is filled with videos of their performance. The answer to the question is “not exactly”. Subsequently, the potential to glide long distances with such quick speed and smoothness often makes us humans wonder of their talents.



Membrane Enables Them to Glide

The flying squirrels are equipped with a membrane that is connected between fronts to back legs such that they make up a kind of parachute landing feel when opened up. The membrane enables squirrels to glide between trees & they pick up nuts and leave the tree for the next one, a sight to see. How rapid they do this is also a show of speed & skill which is amazing to witness.

Understanding The Trajectory & glide

The fold of skin creates a patagium for them which benefits them with their glide. The science of triangulation comes into practice, it is believed. They will pivot while leaning out before jumping to estimate the destination distance. Their capacity to take 90 degree turns while gliding if obstacles come in way is an absolute joy to watch.

Before reaching a tree that they want to land on, the flattened tails are raised and the limbs are pointed in forward direction making a trajectory such that of a parachute for reduction of landing shock. The effect of landing will be absorbed by the limbs and they can quickly move to another tree if found something to eat or maybe escape from potential predators in sight.
