@naturaeanimals: The orange sheet between its limbs is skin, not feathers. When the squirrel spreads its legs, specialized cartilage at the wrists helps stretch that membrane outward. Air moving across it provides lift, turning a leap between trees into a controlled glide. What could change if the squirrel angled one side of its membrane differently from the other? #FlyingSquirrel #Squirrel #wildlife #Nature #WildlifePhotography
