__ Flying Squirrel __ The flying squirrel doesn't fly, but jumps and glides. There are two species of flying squirrels the northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans) and the southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus). Their "flight" is made possible by a fold of skin which exstands from the front to the hind feet. When the legs are completly streched out it makes the skin tight and in a plane surface that allows the squirrel to glide as far as 150 ft. Although most flights only last 20-30 ft.

__ Flying fishes __ The flying fish doesn't fly, but glides. They can be seen worldwide jumping out of warm watered oceans. Their torpedo shaped bodies let them swim through the waters at a high speed to break though the water and their large wing like fins help them get airborne. Flying fish apparently are thought to hsve evolved this gliding ability to escape from their predators which they have plenty of. I dont believe in animals evolving into something else!!!!
