: I thought that only the male sg had scent glands but the female that I got also smells like a skunk when she is scared she will let this smell off. He used to do it when I first got him but he dont do it no more. Can anyone explain this?
I had a female sugar glider that also did this. I don't have much of an explaination, but I did read about it in a sg book. It is just a defense mechanism, similiar to a skunks, obviously, except that it doesn't last long.
