The exposure of human populations to new sources of food common to the polar regions caused changes in physiology that resulted in the production of less melanin.
The exposure of human populations to less UV light required a reduction in melanin to produce more vitamin D for healthier bones.
The exposure of human populations to predators only common to the polar regions caused them to adapt by camouflaging better with the environment.
