The answer is no. There have been legitimate (documented) cases of feral human children. They did not grow fur. Actually, feral pigs are really unique among domestic animals in how rapidly and the extent to which their phenotype changes when they become feral. Despite what one person said, the changes can occur even faster than two years and involve other changes besides just bristle growth.

Interesting question. Most humans could not survive two years in the wild, let alone grow a protective coat of fur. All that sort of evolving to suit the elements has taken people thousands of years, as far as we know.

It probably takes feral pigs a little longer to grow bristles ( fur) than two years. I don't know who you would get to live out in the cold for a couple years with no clothes to see if they would grow fur. But good luck. I hope your not writing your thesis on this.

I don't think just anybody can. I'm currently growing fur actually. I hit puberty when I was only 8, and I've just been getting extremely hairy since. My chest hair in the center has thickened enough to become fur since I can't see my skin beneath it, and it's been spreading out. I'm doing what I can to get my fur to keep growing.

Well, yes they can. and excess layers of fat also. I observed, not personally mind you, that in the 60's when the mini skirts came out that the people that just had to keep up with the fad .. some how had a change that took place in there lower legs, They grew ... and ankles were not as defined as they had been. And yes to an extent your body will try to keep itself warm. Hopefully , we will not have a bunch of naked people running around this winter to test out this theory.

I saw this guy at the carnival with a fur coat, but it was gross.

yes, i'm a nudist and live in a nudist community. most of us have grown an extra layer of fat, excessive body hair and leathery soles on out feet after about 5 years

We will all adapt to what ever our environment does at the time. Just as the Polar bears will adapt if it warms up...after all...they were regular bears at first....then developed the white fur as we know now.

a very few people can, but the DNA in our genes is highly evolved to not to grow a layer of hair

some of them do...ever been to a swiming pool and seen a guy with a hairy back???:P????
