I have now

Yes, irl
I'm not sure
A little juvenile Sunda Colugo aka Malayan Flying Lemur (Galeopterus variegatus) peering from the underside of its mum :) Nocturnal and arboreal, colugos spend their day resting on tree trunks, becoming more active during the night gliding from tree to tree. Their diet consist on leaves and young shoots. It was nice to see them during a nature walk, didn't find the target but got to see this little one.

A mother and baby Sunda colugo, (Galeopterus variegatus). (Hi-Res).
My favorite thing about colugos is that despite spending all their time in trees, their Wikipedia article specifically calls them out as “unskilled climbers.” I guess it makes sense, they’re just minmaxed with all their skill points into gliding. They have to be really efficient at gliding between trees because any amount of altitude they lose they have to struggle to make up with their crappy climbing ability.
