Sugar Glider University

Sugar glider husbandry is very difficult for the average pet owner.  Sugar gliders are not domesticated animals, and are, therefore, not a "companion pet." 

Owning and maintaining a sugar glider colony is more like maintaining a small zoo exhibit than having a pet.  It is very important to practice good husbandry with sugar gliders, as most captive sugar gliders in the U.S. die very prematurely due to inadequate husbandry practices.

Here are some basic guidelines.  For more information, please consider enrolling in GU's online courses.
