6.3 Presentation of FoodAs <strong>Squirrel</strong> gliders do not like descending to the ground to feed they should be fed in stainlesssteel bowls, either on platforms or attached to branches. The bowls are 10cm in diameter and5cm deep. (Taronga Zoo, Australian Native Mammals Division.). Instead of the fruit andvegetables being cut up into cubes, the same amount can be placed on nails or branches aroundthe enclosure for increased activity and enrichment as gliders will look around the enclosure forthe spiked food instead of just eating at the food bowls.21
