The mahogany glider (Petaurus gracilis) is an endangered gliding possum[3] native to a small region of coastal Queensland in Australia.

[4] The mahogany glider is restricted to a very small area, between Ollera Creek south of Ingham and Tully in North Queensland, Australia.

[3] The mahogany glider has a long breeding season with births starting April and ending in October.

In ideal conditions, the combined home range of a pair of animals averages around 23 hectares (57 acres), although this may be smaller in areas of fragmented habitat.

[13] Mahogany gliders have been reported to make deep, nasal grunting sounds when travelling at night, and a similar, but much louder and more rapid, alarm call, which has been described as "reminiscent of a lawnmower".

[15] The main threat to mahogany gliders is habitat loss due to clearing for development, forestry and agriculture.
