Hi my name is Elizabeth. I am doing a school project on sugargliders. I need to find out which ones smarter a male or female? I want to find out what you think... So far on this test at day, and at night the male has won... But just because he won the first 2 dosn't mean things might not turn around. So don't just vote for the guy because the information I have given you... Thank you very much smile smile smile

Hi Elizabeth. Please remember that after your tests you only know which is the smarter of your two. Don't ever tell my Gideon I said this, but of my two gliders... well, Gideon's not very bright. That doesn't mean I don't love him with all my heart, it just means that Smicha (my female) is more than a bit quicker to figure things out. I love them both dearly.

you are not going to be able to find out which sex is smarter..especially with only two gliders...you would need hundreds of gliders to test to get an accurate idea..and there is really no evidence that one gender is smarter than the other..maybe you could test which of your individual gliders is a better problem solver (which is what mazes are for)...also out of my two gliders (one male and one female) i would say that they are pretty evenly matched...
