Came across this little guy on Instagram:

OK..there is something not right about this glider, right? I have never seen one that A. Looks like he does in the face and B. That is that unhealthy looking. Anyone else agree or know what may be wrong with poor little MooToon? Unbelievable cruelty on the owners part.

I agree that this poor glider does not look healthy. I sure hope his owners will get him some good quality vet care ASAP.

That is so sad. Horrible to let him/her get that way.

I know very little about it, but it seems some cultures think getting
their gliders super fat is cool. I think in the pictures he is even trying to make the glider look fatter. I can only guess some people are raised to
not give a dang about animals health or well being.

There are many comments on the pictures that ask why the glider is so fat. Some people have posted it is animal abuse. Being a vet tech I can assure you this is a form of abuse. Definitely a shortened life span. I just don't understand how anyone could think that is acceptable. Sad.
