I don't know where the best place is to send him for a necropsy for both research purposes as well as finding out what happened. Thank you in advance. Oh, I should add he's in the fridge now. I know not to freeze him. Last edited by zanderfever; 09/09/16 06:03 PM. Gwaihir The Windlord Quinn Sophie

Here is the post Dawn was talking about , however, I am not sure if they are still active in this effort. I am so very sorry for your loss. Your Sugar Glider Resource Center Sugar Glider Help

Have your vet send the tissues (if your vet does the necropsy) here: Zoo Exotic Pathology If your vet does not want to do the necropsy, he can also send the entire body in and Zoo Exotic will do the gross necropsy and the Histo. They are very skilled in sugar gliders. Peggy Critter Love Critter Love� Diet Center If you want to know what a person is like, watch how he treats others. You'll never know what the outcome is if you don't step up and try.
