Because long, thin bodies, presenting a greater surface area relative to volume, are better able to dissipate body heat respect to rounder bodies that instead are better suited to preserve body heat. The round bodies of the Inuit of the Arctic and the tall, slim bodies of some African population are examples of natural selection at work.
