Re: Are You A Furry?

Yeah, sweating is probably the most efficient way to get rid of excess body heat, and humans, being hairless, are the best at it. Prehistoric hunters would just chase after their prey until it overheated and couldn't keep going. That worked to cancel out any speed advantage an animal might have had.
