Sugar Gliders as pets in the UK!
sue September 14th, 2008
A concerned resident has sent me this information that I quote. I can’t believe that our native animals are being bred and sold as pets in the UK.
“I have just followed the latest news link to something that was on the front page of the Ninemsn home page this morning, and I am sickened by what I have just read re the sugar gliders”.

I didn’t think this would be allowed. It concerns me that these delicate animals are being kept as pets. I have them living in my backyard naturally and hope that we can preserve plenty of habitat so that gliders and other native animals can stay happily wild.
