Is it true that a polar bear's skin is black? If so, why is it black?
-- Shane
Yes, polar bears really do have black skin, although it's hard to see under all that white fur. Their skin is black because black absorbs heat better than any other color (or shade). So while their fur acts as camoflage, their skin helps to warm them up.
