The rabbit’s body is covered in hair that grows from follicles located throughout its skin. Underneath this hair lies a layer of soft, white fur called the undercoat which keeps the rabbit warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather. The undercoat is thicker on females than on males because they need it more than males do since they have higher body temperatures due to their reproductive systems being active all year long instead of just during breeding season like most other mammals do.”
