Saw this animal at SICC yesterday.
Can anyone tell me what animal is that?
A Flying Squirrel? It has a "Wing" between the front and rear legs.

Flying squirrel, they actually can't fly, it climb to top of the tree and glide to lower
area or trunk!

How do you it is fly squirrel?

They are Gliders....free gliding thru the air!!! can't go higher except going lower and lower!!

Man, it looks a little scary!

We cannot see this animal at the bird park or Zoo.
Can we ???

ALIEN!!!!

i went to the zoo, bird park n night safari.... Dont recall seeing such an animal.. looks kinda freaky. =/

Flying squirrels are red right... not grey with bulging eyes. LOL!!

Looks more like a malayan flying lemur...

(distant cousin of my species..)

That's a scary looking animal!!!!

Looks like something from Avatar!

This is a more accurate account and Ssquirrel should know better....
But then Lemur has a long tail leh. Maybe its hidden behind the trees due to the angle of the photo shot?

And they are walking around freely with clubs in their hands hahhaha...

actually......I was just wondering, what was our bro SBH doing in such a place which allowed him to see such animal?

If I am not mistaken, he has a 'fairway' seeking drives...which works really berry well

He hits the ball into the centre of the fairway, the rest are busy looking for their balls. He has to wait so go take picture la..

Malayan flying lemur is not real lemur lah.. not like the cartoon with long tail..if you google sure can find the scientific names, etc..

To my squirrel kind, they're like the bastard cousin, no one talks about during family gatherings...

you are really funni.

Yup that is a malayan flying lemur, it glides and cannot fly, and is nocturnal, so you are lucky to see it day time.

That is why SICC should not re-develop, many rare animals will not be seen again after that, no where to hide liao.

It was a common sight at Bukit Timah Hill during my younger days,
use to see them gliding from high angle to lower branches or trunk.

Not sure u could see today??

Lots of ppl and MTB riders are scaring them away..
