    		The term fur refers to the body hair of non-human mammals, also known as the pelage.

    Though usually hairless, certain animals do have fur on the soles of their paws. An example being the Red Panda, whose furry soles help insulate them in their snowy habitat. Another example is the Polar Bear.
