Hi Chen, and the group,

Nice one (or should that be n-ice one??).

I hate to disagree, but the bears' fur is not white! It is actually
pigment-free and transparent with a hollow core.
They look white because the hollow core reflects the light. 
The young are whiter than adults, who turn more yellow with age.

73 for now
