What is another word for fur?
Pronunciation: [fˈɜː] (IPA) 
Fur is a term used to describe the thick, soft coat of hair that covers an animal's body. However, there are other words that can be used to describe the same material, such as pelt, hide, coat, and fleece. Pelt refers to the skin of an animal with the fur still attached, while hide is the whole skin with the fur removed. Coat and fleece are more commonly used for domestic animals such as dogs and sheep, but can also be used to describe the fur of other animals. Other synonyms for fur include hair, wool, and down. Each word has its own unique meaning and use, but all refer to the soft, warm covering that keeps animals comfortable in their natural habitats.
