7 Weirdest Flying Animals
The earth is full of magnificent creatures that never managed to overwhelm humanity. Among them, the flying animals are the ones that have always managed to attract observers/researchers’ attention. These animals may not have bird-like wings, but their aerodynamic structures allow them to fly.
Let’s take a look at these 7 weirdest flying animals.
1. COLUGOS
Sometimes, these tree-dwelling gliders are called flying lemurs, but they are neither true lemurs nor are they flying. Such mammals of the Cynocephalus genus occur in Southeast Asia and are about the size of a house cat. Using their patagium, colugos can fly up to 200 feet between trees, or skin flaps between their front and hind legs extending to their tail and neck (colugos are also webbed between their toes). They will gracefully fly through the forest in the air but look like an animated pancake on the ground.
2. FLYING FISH
