Who's That Pollinator? It's a Sugar Glider! These tiny Australian Marsupials can glide up to 50 meters and are an important pollinator! With the ability to glide 50 meters between trees, these pocket-sized pollinators help native flowering plants in the Australian Forest. They're called "Sugar Gliders" because they have a sweet tooth! They love sugary tree sap and nectar.
When a Sugar Glider is foraging for nectar, pollen collects on their furry bodies. When they are ready to move on to the next plant, they glide using a membrane of skin called a "patagium" that stretches between their wrists and ankles. They carry that pollen to their next foraging space, aiding in the process of pollination!
Sugar gliders have been impacted by climate change, habitat loss, and extreme weather events like bushfires. You can help them by spreading the word about the important job they do and why they're critical to the environment!
Pollination is the transfer of pollen from an anther of a plant to the stigma of a plant, which makes fertilization and the production of seeds possible. Read on to discover the uniquely incredible world of pollination, which brings so many priceless gifts to our own world.
National Pollinator Month, observed every June, is dedicated to raising awareness about the essential role pollinators play in sustaining our ecosystems, agriculture, and global food supplies.
