👉 Pelts, also known as fur, are soft and flexible skin that covers the body of an animal. They provide insulation to protect the animal from cold temperatures and can help regulate body temperature. Pelted animals have a dense layer of fat called the subcutaneous fat which is used for insulation in winter and helps maintain body temperature during hot weather. The fur also provides camouflage, helps in protecting against predators, and aids in attracting mates.
