7 of these guys have gone on display and are doing well. They originated from a zoo in Vietnam and came to us by way of San Diego Zoo. Photo courtesy of Night Safari Singapore.

      Yeah, i agree.

      But these guys are expected to fare better than the previous species because of the more similar climate. Plus they are extremely friendly, a few were apparently hand-raised.

      Yes they are still displayed together with Petaurista alborufus in the walk-through exhibit.
