Fish have scales because their natural habitat is of course, water. If a fish had fur, it would weigh them down. Also, where would a fish's gills go because gills enable fish to breathe!
Squirrels have fur also for their habitat to keep them warm.
Hope I have helped!!!!

Does a blow fish have fur or skin?
Firstly remember that FISH HAVE SCALES!!!I don't think it would be a fish if it had fur or skin. Blow fish have scales, but also have many spikes across their body. These spikes are a form of defence, other fish are not so keen to eat something that would scratch on their throat and mouths!!! Hope this helps.
