Spotted Giant Flying Squirrel (Petaurista elegans)

Taken a little earlier in the main Pangolin enclosure of the Pangolin Trail. He is decently active and more than likely the first animal you'll see in the enclosure.

I'm extremely happy to see a Giant Flying Squirrel still on display of the modern era of Night Safari, especially when apparently we're only one of 2 Zoos to house this species according to Zootierliste
 
How old is this individual? Flying squirrels can make it to 15 years in captivity

It's been around for quite some time I believe, it was one of the last 3 Giant Flying Squirrels when the Civet Walkthrough still once housed them as the main stars
