Sugar flier (SciiFii)

A sugar flier (Thylacovespertilio caelum) is a species of small, omnivorous, arboreal, and nocturnal flying possum of the Petauridae family that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, swamps, forests, and open woodlands of Australia to help boost biodiversity. The common name refers to its predilection for sugary foods such as sap and nectar. Unlike its closest living relative, the sugar glider (Petaurus breviceps), the most likely base animal for the sugar flier, it has the ability to fly through the air, much like a bat, thanks to its long wings supported by its ankles and its last two fingers. It has a long bony tail with a paddle-shaped skin at the end to help stabilize its flight, unlike a bat, due to being a poor powered flier in a manner similar to primitive birds like Archaeopteryx. It is a very large animal for its family, growing to be about the size of a large colugo. It is a solotary animal that live most of its life alone except during breeding seasons. The conservation status of the sugar flier is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the sugar flier's wide range and its tolerance to most of human activities.
