Conservation filmmaker Trishala Ashok told Yahoo News there's growing interest in sugar gliders in her country, with some costing as little as $150 each.
"Sugar gliders are one of the Australian pets that are in the highest demand," she said.
"It's not cold in India, so I don't think sugar gliders are asking for them."
