kangaroo, the koala and the wombat for instance. The sugar glider is a possum

fruit. However, the Australian sugar glider has a very special skill. It can jump from
tree to tree like a tupai but it can also sort of fly as well. In fact, it glides or
terbang layang in Bahasa Indonesia. When it jumps from one tree to another it
spreads its four legs out wide; and its extra skin also spreads out and functions like
a parachute.
