Why hello and welcome! The Species you are currently looking at, is called
the 'Paludemptera'. Their name is composed of 'Paludem', meaning 'swamp',
and 'ptera' meaning 'an organism or organisms having wings or winglike parts'.
Anyways, enough with the really scientific stuff. We just call them Palu's.
Paludempteras are very small creatures seeing as males will fit right in the
palm of your hand, and females take two hands to hold. They are very
friendly creatures and usually reside in Conifer swamps, which usually
consist of trees like white cedar, northern white cedar, eastern hemlock,
eastern white pine, pitch pine, loblolly pine and black spruce. Palu's coats
are rather course, and usually made up of dull or earthy colours. Although,
it isn't quite uncommon to see one with a few brighter markings. Palu's
generally make their nests in trees, whether it be in the branches or in a
hollow. Their wings are small and couldn't even be used for gliding. However,
the males use their wings to attract mates by simply flapping them and
puffing out their chest fur. A Palu eats small insects, and uses it's large
ears to find insects hidden in trees. Paludemptera's webbed feet also
allow them to swim, and they can stay submerged for around half an hour.
