Facts about flying squirrels learned

• Flying squirrels eat nuts, not fish.
• Flying squirrels can glide, but they are terrible swimmers, therefore being one of the animals to drown easily.
• Flying squirrels can see very well, but they cannot dance very well.
• Flying squirrels live in the forest, not in the snow because it's too cold.
• Flying squirrels are afraid of snakes.

Animals found by Click

• Spectacled bears
• Mice
• Baby birds

Rescue Pack transformations

• Jump rope

• New tire

Trivia

• This episode could explain why Tico never appeared in the series. There is already a squirrel in the show.
• All the animals that Click looked for are in a nest. She did not look for their sounds.
• During the Al Rescate song, because Diego rides a motorcycle throughout the entire adventure, he does not do the clapping like usual, he instead honks the horn on his motorcycle.
• This is the second episode where Rescue Pack was used almost immediately after Click, the first being Save the Sea Turtles.
• Baby Jaguar does not appear in this episode. However, a flying squirrel is taking his place as the next assistant.
• Like in Whistling Willie Finds a Friend, Diego does not say, "Those silly/naughty monkeys are always causing trouble!". He says, "Those silly monkeys are always getting into trouble!" instead.
• This could be Diego's version of Super Map! and Super Babies (all of them have to do with superheroes).
• When Click says, "Yes, they are!" the audio is taken from A Booboo on the Pygmy Marmoset.
• This was the only episode to be written by the supervising producer Jeff DeGrandis.
• Although it premiered in 2008 on DVD and Nickelodeon and 2011 on Nick Jr., it was made in 2007 according to the end credits.

Goofs/Errors

• It is unknown how Rescue Pack managed to make the transformation wheel perfect and just the right size.
