Although native to Australia, sugar gliders are quickly gaining a foothold in the U.S. pet population. The sugar glider is a small Australian marsupial (similar to an opossum) that gets its name from two of its unique traits - its love of sweet foods, and its ability to use its gliding membrane ( a flap of skin between its front and back legs, similar to a flying squirrel) to glide through the treetops.
Our stuffed sugar glider from Aurora is a lifelike version of this unusual animal! Measuring 8 inches long, our plush sugar glider is from Aurora's popular Mini-Flopsie line is made from a gray plush. This unique plush sugar glider shows off the long tail that sugar gliders are known for, a cream head and brown stripes. Dark eyes and an endearing expression give our plush sugar glider tons of character. And, just like all of Aurora's quality stuffed animals, our plush sugar glider is made from all new kid-safe man made materials and meets or exceeds all U.S. safety standards. Surface washable; recommended for ages 3 and up.
