The Long-eared Flying Mouse (Idiurus macrotis), or Long-eared Scaly-tailed Flying Squirrel, is a species of flying mouse from western and central Africa. It is not actually a squirrel, nor a mouse, though it is a rodent. Not much is known about them because they are very hard to keep alive in captivity.To achieve gliding flight, it uses two membranes (patagia) which fold up when not in use.
