LEIPZIG, Germany (WBBM) - Dolores the Bear has lost her fur coat and veterinarians at the Leipzig Zoo In Germany are completely baffled.
Vets don't know what is causing this condition of nearly complete baldness.
Some experts believe it could be due to a genetic defect though the animal does not seem to be suffering from any other affliction.
The bear, which originate from South America, normally have fluffy dark brown fur and would now be growing a thicker fur coat to keep warm during the winter.
Unfortunately for the bears, their lack of hair has been pulling in the crowds who want to see want to see the wrinkly animals.
