Since the last ice age it is believed that those humans who survived, did wear skins of animals for protection from the severe cold. Since those days, we have evolved and adapted to the warmth of clothes with a decrease in body hair growth which coincides with a decrease in key hormones that promote hair growth.
Clothes then became a part of human society and it has entered our social psychology that wearing clothes is normal.
Of-course, in some places around the globe, you might not necessarily need clothes to keep warm.
But for example, Siberia, Russia would be a place where I would like to wear clothes :)
To answer the second part of your question, animals still have fur/hair/coats/lard to suit their environment as per their evolution cycle.
They "don't care" because animals have not gone through the age of reason and into consciousness.
I prefer to wear nothing when it is warm enough. Nudist beaches all the way!!!
Hope that helps.

I have never understood why guys can go without shirts, but women can't. So what if our breasts are prutruding a little or a lot more or sometimes less then men's? So what! If it would have been started on day one then it wouldn't be new and nobody would think anything of it. Now I do agree that during the Winter that we should have a nice fluffy fur coat to keep us warm, but i have never understood the clothing thing either. I guess it's just a decorative thing.
"Well could you really imagine people now walking around butt naked?" Like I said, If this was done from day one, then it wouldn't be new and nobody would think anything of it. It would be normal.

Worst is a human wearing animal cloths. human beings sometime behave like animals without even wearing the animal cloths, while, whether animals positioned on human’s cloths, they gained't exchange because of the fact they do no longer look to be hypocrites.

If you answered that question by today's standards, it would probably come down to insecurities about our bodies (thanks to the world of fashion and such). But maybe it started because, although humans are mammals, we don't have a protective coat of fur like most of the others do (which is why I don't really think of mammals as "naked", since their skin is so covered). Due to whatever "higher intelligence" we apparently have, the idea of covering up for warmth probably eventually turned into clothes.

Well could you really imagine people now walking around butt naked? Trust me I would actually and I mean totally drop dead from laughter if we as people were walking down the streets with no clothing on. I would be hysterical! And even if someone did slap my face to try to snap me out of it, I would only turn around and become hysterical again from LMAO!
I can't help it! If something is funny to me I will laugh until my gut aches and until I cry!

Humans need to wear clothes to get protection from weather and other external factors.Animals are not developed as humans are but they also have their own ways of adaptations.

Why do humans need to live in houses, sleep in beds, watch tv, and learn about math, science, language, etc. when animals don't need any of that stuff?
... because we are not animals, those are what set us apart.

for protection and warmth...
animals have fur coats or shells or other means of protection...
humans did not need clothes in the tropical climates where we originated but because we have a need to travel, clothes came in pretty handy to allow us to venture to climates that are very different...

Cos the majority of animals have lovely furry coats to keep them warm and their modesty covered. And that is where fur coats belong.
