 Liguans are often called Jungle Yetis by Terrans as they look a lot like this mythical beast of Terran lore.

Liguans are tall and have green shaggy and very dense fur. The green color stems from algae growing inside fur. Both the fur and the Algae protect the Liguans from the lethal sting of a nettle plant on their home world.

Some Liguans, especially those in Navy and Marine corps do wash their hair and are completely free of Algae (but choose to color their usually gray fur green in a homage to their roots)
