The Microraptor is believed to have glided rather than flown like modern birds. Its anatomy, including long feathers on its arms and legs, suggests it could maneuver through the air, but it lacked the wing structure necessary for powered flight. Instead, it likely used its capabilities to glide between trees while hunting for prey. This unique combination of features indicates that it was well-adapted for an arboreal lifestyle.
