Why do humans need sunscreen, but animals, with or without fur/feathers, do just fine without?

Seriously, a bad sunburn could limit our ability to survive in the wild. I’ve had a few so bad I could barely move and I had a super high fever. Desn’t that happen to animals? How do they manage?

We are more exposed to UVA and UVB. Although I don’t know much about animals and UV I’d assume they can burn too since they have skin. We just don’t have a heavy layer protecting us.
