The above statement is true.
Animal fibres are natural fibres obtained from animals of different kinds, which also contain different kinds of proteins. Wool has a natural layer of keratin on the animal's body. Wool is obtained from the thick coat of hair on the body of animals like sheep, camels, etc. The soft under-hair present underneath the coarse beard hair is used to make wool. Wool is considered a water-repellent, mainly obtained from sheep, but it is not the only source of wool. Animals that yield wool are rabbits, goats, yak and sheep etc.
