N2  - Stomach contents of 133 gliders were examined for total dry weight of food, and calorific values. From four years' collections it was estimated that daily food intake was 20g dry wt. or 108 kcal. The feeding rate was estimated at 2.8g dry wt. hr-1 and was observed to be leaves, buds, and bark of the major tree species. The estimated harvest by the glider population was 6 kg dry wt. ha-1 yr-I (3.2 x 10*4 kcal ha-1 yr-I).
