Young Colugo Animal Saw in Singapore

Image
Mrupupup was so excited that a young Colugo animal was spotted among the trees in Lower Pierce Reservoir park in Singapore. This colugo animal is pretty hard to spot in Singapore and it is considered 'vulnerable'. Well, it was a lucky day to spot such a mammal! The Colugo is a gliding mammal found in the South East Asia jungles. This nocturnal animal glides at night with its flying wings. The one Mrupupup saw was a young colugo and it had brown fur. The young colugo was about the size of big squirrel. Adult colugo has a greyish coat. The mammal is related closely to primates. Very exciting. Please see the best photograph below of the Colugo (taken by Mrupupup!).
