The Siberian flying squirrel (Pteromys volans) is an Old World flying squirrel with a range from the Baltic Sea in the west to the Pacific Coast in the east.

That's a heck of a glide range. -- Jonsg (talk) 12:35, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p072n8m0/earth-from-space-series-1-4-changing-planet describes the squirrel as 'solitary but social', as females will nest together during winters for mutual warmth. I don't know if that is a suitable source, but one should be found to add this fact to the article. Arlo James Barnes 20:37, 14 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
