The hair of a polar bear is hollow allowing it to absorb and retain heat better than that of it cousins with black or brown hair.

and, when looking at a polar bear through an infrared camera, the only heat exiting the bear is his breath, this is due to the blubber and hair that provide enough warmth that most of the time, the polar bear is consistantly trying to cool down by rolling in the snow.
