Though living in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, which embraces snow mountains and glaciers, the spring and summer are still considered as "hot seasons" for the animals. To adapt to the increasing temperature, animals in this plateau begin to shed their heavy winter suits. The intermittent shedding might make these gentlemen and ladies seem "improperly dressed", but the sooner they change into the "seasonal clothing", the sooner they can enjoy the summer.
