Flying squirrels are beautiful animals that many people have heard about but few people have actually seen. Because sightings of these animals are not common it leads many people to ask, “Are Flying Squirrels Endangered?”
It turns out that the population of flying squirrels is quite robust and as a species are not endangered. The lone exception is a single sub-species of flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus coloratus) that has been on the Endangered Species list since 1985.
