A Squirrel Glider Petaurus norfolcensis (endangered in Victoria) held by Deb Fowler of Bohollow Wildlife Rescue, photographed by me in Kotupna Victoria 2015. This little chap had been injured and was ready for release.
He’s some progress photos of how to make a Squirrel Glider from this…
So here’s my progress so far:
A basic shape
Building up a shape
Adding limbs and looking at posture
Modifying head angle and increasing tail size
Starting work on tail detail (very time consuming)
More about the species and some amazing efforts to minimise road casualties can be seen at: https://lifeontheverge.net/tag/road-ecology/
I will post more progress photos in the coming weeks.

That’s the tail being made on the kitchen table.
