How strong is human skin relative to other animals?
gpt
A human raised in similar conditions to animals winds up with very thick skin on the hands, feet and sun exposed areas. 

Look at the skin on the feet of individuals who regularly walk barefoot and it's often quite thick, then combine that with the increased need for thick skin on uneven, rocky ground.

Most mammals have relatively similar skin, with examples like rhinos, elephants and other savannah animals being an exception due to the increased need for protection from sun and predators, as well as the need for water retention.

The average indoor human, though, has thinner skin than we otherwise would have, being more similar to subterranean or nocturnal animals like moles and mice.
