Several animals glide without wings, using various adaptations to travel through the air. Some of these include:
1. **Flying Squirrels**: 
These mammals have a membrane called a patagium that stretches from their wrists to their ankles, allowing them to glide between trees.

Also known as "flying lemurs," these mammals have a large patagium that extends from their neck to the tips of their fingers, toes, and tail, enabling them to glide considerable distances.

These reptiles have elongated ribs covered by skin flaps that can be extended to form "wings," allowing them to glide between trees.

Certain ant species can control their fall and glide back to their tree trunks if they are knocked off.
5. **Gliding Snakes**: 
Some snakes, like the paradise tree snake, can flatten their bodies and make undulating movements to glide from tree to tree.

Gliding Possums**: Similar to sugar gliders, they have a membrane that stretches from their forelimbs to their hindlimbs.
Gliding Possums**: Similar to sugar gliders, they have a membrane that stretches from their forelimbs to their hindlimbs.These animals have evolved various adaptations to glide through the air, aiding in their survival and mobility.
These adaptations help them escape predators, find food, or move between habitats efficiently.
