Basically all mammalian pigmentation is just melanin, so mammal colorings are mostly just different amounts of brown combined with different amounts of red, and some animals don’t even have the red.

    It’s hard to do with fur, I believe. Birds and bugs also don’t have green pigment, I believe. But they also don’t have fur.
