Humans did not evolve to be in -10 degrees weather. We lost the fur as we
have a very sophisicated cooling system that works better without fur. This
allowed us to be active in the middle of the savannah day, when most
animals are dozing. We then had an advantage for hunting them.

Before you make statements like that you should do more reading. To start I
suggest "Why We Get Sick" by Neese and Williams. You can see more about the
book here:
