Flying rats generally refer to animals with the ability to glide. They do not "fly" in the true sense, but glide through the air by spreading their membranes. Here are several species of rodents with the ability to glide:
1. Koala: The koala is a relatively large marsupial with membranes stretched between its forelimbs and hind legs that allow it to glide through the air.
2. Flying squirrel: Flying squirrel is a true "flying squirrel". It is small in size and has broad skin membranes on both sides of its body. It can fly dozens of meters in the air.
3. Red-bellied squirrel: The red-bellied squirrel is also a mouse that can glide. It also has broad skin membranes on both sides of its body and can glide in the air for a distance of more than 50 meters.
4. Bats: Although bats are not rodents, they also have the ability to glide and fly. They are the only mammals in the world that can fly autonomously.
It's important to note that although these rodents all have the ability to glide, the distance and method of gliding vary. At the same time, the feeding and ecological habits of these rodents are also different, and they require sufficient attention and understanding when raising or observing them.
