Homosapian epidermis adaptation

I want to pose a question i cannot find an answer for anywhere. My question is "why haven't humans evolved any environmental skin adaptations?". I observe every single creature on the earth has these physical environmental adaptations, such as fur, or feathers, or scales. Humans have no environmental adaptations. Skin pigment and internal temperature regulation is not a epidermis adaptation to the environment. I think this question along with why we don't have claws or any predator type teeth are very important in determining human origins. Please help! Mightius (talk) 17:53, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article could be improved with the added use of images as well as updating the references and adding some more detail about the limits to human heat and cold capabilities. BrookeBarlow (talk) 18:49, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article could be improved by possibly mentions different aspects of our bodies based on our genetics and how that changes how our bodies adjust to the climate.Jmm00007 (talk) 20:15, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Error in Culture/Heat

Article reads: Humans inhabit hot climates, both dry and humid, and **have done so for millions of years.**

Humans have not done anything for millions of years, we've only been here under 100,000 years. 2601:203:280:7E30:396D:2831:EFD2:6AE (talk) 17:01, 9 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
