Many animals molt during the winter to adapt to colder climates. These animals often moult to increase the density of their body hair to provide better warmth, or to adjust their coat color to suit winter conditions. Here are some animals that moult in winter:
Dogs: During the cold season, some dogs grow thicker winter coats to stay warm.
Cats: Most domestic cats also grow thicker hair during the winter. Although domestic cats spend most of their time indoors, their physiological adaptation mechanisms are still able to sense seasonal changes.
Reindeer: In order to adapt to the extremely cold winter climate, reindeer also grow thicker hair in winter.
Arctic Fox: This species of fox that lives in extremely cold environments changes its fur to thicker, denser white fur in winter to help keep it warm and provide better concealment.
Moose: Moose also grow thicker hair during the winter to cope with the extreme cold.
Squirrels: Some species of squirrels grow thicker hair during the winter to protect against the cold and maintain body temperature.
Although these animals moult during the cold season to adapt to the cold environment, some animals may not necessarily adapt to changes in the artificial environment. In a pet or gardening environment, taking care to provide the right temperature and protection is key to ensuring their health and comfort.
