True, but they aren’t mammals.

No, why is it so hard for mammals to make green? Even green eyes are just a reflection/interferrence trick.

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.

Right, i just remembered that green and blue in feathers is also just a interferrence trick. Same in bug shell.
