Polar Bear Fur's Natural Oil Prevents Ice Build-Up, Study Finds
Scientists have uncovered a surprising feature of polar bear fur: a natural oil that prevents ice accumulation. Unlike penguins, which rely on feather structure, polar bears benefit from a chemical composition that keeps their fur ice-free. A study published in Science Advances found that unwashed polar bear fur performed as well as high-performanc...
