The Siberian Flying Squirrel is a unique creature that is native to Russia.
They are known for their ability to fly, which is how they got their name. Despite their small size, they are incredibly agile and can navigate through the trees with ease.
They live in forested areas near rivers and lakes, and make their homes in tree cavities or abandoned nests.
They have thick fur coats that keep them warm in the cold Russian winters, and colouring that helps them blend in with their surroundings.
