:I forgot to mention that as far as I can read, No One Wants to See This Glider Put To Sleep. If I lived near her,
I would take the glider. I already have 5. I could easily
take care of one more. Just to clear up one more of your unthought out comments.

Somehow I doubt you've owned your glider(s) for a long time if you even have gliders. I dont know, but we haven't "missed the whole point". Most of us here love our gliders dearly and care about them(the species) and not so much about peoples feelings. Im guilty of this quite often and Im proud of it. I've been insulted and told I dont care so many times I dont even care what people think. I dont know about you but my girl has birthed 5 joeys in my hands over the years. She's gone to Disney with me(thank you B!) she's done so much with me and to think of another glider being possibly put to sleep because she isnt a good mother and isnt the friendliest thing is insane! You CANNOT make a glider breed. If she kept killing babies over the years doesnt that give you a clue to check into her diet/health sooner? If none of that was even mentioned I think there would've been less "shock" in the post and less people upset. But who am I to say? Im only a narrow minded, glider loving freak, thats all.
: Mary- I must say, without your calm, rational posts I would have blown up and started in. Thank you for explaning things without the attitude(like I do). Good job!
