Animals that we can barely recognize without their hair

We’ve talked about primates with alopecia several times now, and this poor chimpanzee is no exception. In this case, it’s a hereditary condition inherited from father to son. This chimpanzee happens to have lived in a Zoo in Britain, and was a happy part of the family group of chimps there. We’re glad to know that, despite his unusual looks, he got along well with the others around him.
