Best Answer
The only mammal capable of free flight is the bat. There are many glider species, such as the sugar glider, pygmy possum, greater glider, etc, which do not fly. They are equipped with membranes extending from their "wrists" to their "ankles" which extend and enable the glider to glide between tree tops.
