Overview

Northern flying squirrels are gentle, nocturnal gliders with complex social needs and a strong reliance on secure shelter, varied foods and predictable routines. This handbook gives readers a clear, approachable look at the principles behind caring for and understanding these small mammals in settings where their management is legal, ethical and properly supervised. You'll learn the core ideas behind creating a nocturnal-friendly enclosure, including nest boxes, climbing structure, quiet zones and lighting that supports natural rhythms. The book explains how professionals think about balanced diets, calcium considerations and seasonal adjustments without offering step-by-step formulas. Bonding pouch routines, observational handling, and the cues that help readers understand comfort or stress are covered in simple terms. A section on gliding behavior outlines the environmental concepts that make safe indoor movement possible in supervised, permitted contexts. Whether you're a wildlife student, educator, naturalist or someone fascinated by small gliding mammals, this handbook offers a grounded introduction to northern flying squirrel behavior, biology and responsible care principles.
