Normally white, Pelusa turned violet after veterinarians administered a medicine to treat her for a skin condition. Her veterinarians said her coat should turn normal again within a month.

WTF? Where on earth did they dye a polar bear purple. Alternatively, could just be a very good Photoshop jobby!

It was a medicine they were giving her that made her purple. They said on the news a couple days ago it should only last about 2 weeks.

There are body parts you can make purple without Meds. Just squeeze real hard and dont let go.

I'm not opposed to choking the chicken, Cart, but I was talking about my hair...

Purple is a popular color with bears!
Is this buyable with VV points?

I could have sworn that I learned something in one of my Biology classes about the hair on Polar Bears. Supposedly it was actually clear rather than white. From what I remember, the white color was a reflection of their skin-tone or some shit. I am not saying this as a fact, but just some random fact that I remember picking up somewhere.
