could be different smell.
my gliders do get spooked sometimes, different sounds like plastic wrap or anything that could make a snake like sound.
My wife's glider is very bonded to her, but sometimes he just wants to be with the others in the sleeping pouch and he will run from her and get back in pouch will all the others, while some days he won't leave her shirt and if she puts him in cage he will just jump back in her shirt.
