Answer 1

So we can have sweat glands, and completely outrun every other single animal on this planet. Look up persistence hunting. It’s how we used to survive.

Answer 2

It’s too hot for all that fur my guy. Shoot when my hair gets too long I feel like I’m wearing a bearskin.

Answer 3

This lack of hair is one of the adaptations that make humans the dominant species on earth. Its a side effect of having sweat glands for evaporative cooling.
