Iinyaniso

It can glide, or parachute, across distances of as much as 100 m from tree to tree.1

To glide, it curves its belly into a U-shape that acts like a parachute, then undulates through the air like it is swimming.1

It balances in the air by twisting its tail from side to side, with the tail held rigidly upwards.1

Its striking looks and gliding have made it a sought-after choice for captivity, though it often struggles in captivity.1

It is sometimes cooked for food.1
