Molting is a natural process in which animals shed their outer layer of skin, hair, or feathers. The molting process typically occurs in stages and can take several days or even weeks to complete. During this time, the animal may appear dull or lethargic as it expends energy on growing new skin, hair, or feathers.
Molting is an important process for animals as it allows them to replace old, damaged, or worn-out skin, hair, or feathers. It also helps to regulate body temperature and can be a sign of good health. In some animals, molting can also be a way to communicate with other members of their species.
