Sugar Gliders & their bonding pouches?
Don't take them to school with you. I'm pretty sure if the school found out you had them you would get in trouble. Not only that but they will be a distraction. Even if you dont think they will distract others they will distract you by just being there, you will be thinking about them and such. Every glider is different. I have some gliders that will stay in the pouch and sleep with no hesitation, then i have some gliders that become more curious when they are in their pouch and want to poke their heads out to peak around and such...if the pouch is sealed they do not stop trying to find a way out even, so i basically have to leave the pouch open for them to peak out of when they choose too. They will make noises, maybe not barking but could possibly crab if something disturbs them (for instance i have a glider that if you sneeze within a 15ft radius of him lol), they make other little clicking and hissing noises to speak to each other and also make little sneeze like noises to clean themselves. Schools are very loud and probably will stress them out like mentioned before. You also have to think of their general safety. I remember when i was in high school getting bumped around here and there in the hallways and such, think of what damage could be done if you were bumped in the chest with the gliders on you. Taking gliders to a workplace is just so different than a school environment. Generally I don't even recommend high schoolers get sugar gliders because of the time school and extracurricular activities and homework takes up. Not to mention what are you going to do with them when you go to college. These are animals that can live up to 15 years if taken care of properly and they take a huge commitment. It sounds like to me you won't really have the time it takes to dedicate to them. I would really consider this and decide whether or not it is best you take on this responsibility. But to answer your question...NO DO NOT TAKE YOUR GLIDERS TO SCHOOL WITH YOU.
