Jump Glider

Appearance
Jump gliders are tawny in color but have stripes of different tones from yellow-orange to red. [1]

Magical Gift
Though they are quite capable of running, their preferred method of travel is to bound high into the air on their powerful hind legs and spread their wings to catch the wind. Though they cannot fly by flapping their wings, they are exceptional gliders capable of soaring great distances. [2]

Fringed Newts
Many Jump Gliders form close friendships with fringed newts, who they often carry on their backs. [3]
