A wonderful white appearing furry coat to blend in with the scenery so no one can shoot it from a plane! The fur is special because it is really not white but each hair is actually the almost transparent milky color of the keratin the hair is made from without any added pigments. The color of the hair is similar to the color of your finger nails since they are also made of keratin. The light reflections from the hairs of the fur make it appear white. Each of the longer guard hairs in their fur is also unique because they are hollow. This allows some amount of sun to reach their black skin that absorbs the heat. The air-filled hollow hairs also provide important insulation from the cold temperatures, keeping cold air out and warmth in.
