hmm

rosesarered Tue 15-Nov-16 17:19:01

Ok it's actually hair, not fur.

rosesarered Tue 15-Nov-16 17:19:55

As in a dog has hair, a cat has fur.

Cow or Bullock if it is eaten.

None of those.It can be eaten but it's certainly not common to eat it.

Another clue ...... only found in zoos in UK

rosesarered Tue 15-Nov-16 19:02:18

sorry that sounds misleading ( in zoos all over) but you won't see them outside a zoo in the UK

Interestingly (just investigated as I did not know) Hair, fur and wool are all hair. It is just convention that humans call theirs hair and animal fur etc. the length that hair/fur grows to is. genetic. Whilst our head hair appears to grow unrestrained, it does have a finite length controlled by our genes which is why hair in other areas only grows to a shorter length. It is the density of the hair follicles that determine density.

No help whatsoever with the question, but I was curious.

We need some answers to our questions before we can continue.
