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?

Dogs can definitely get sunburnt. There is a pretty common treatment of tattooing the top portion of their nose black to help combat it. Common in collies but can also happen to huskies or malamutes. Nose is mostly black but might have pink section, or the fur is real thin just behind their nose.
