Here's a friendly grammar check for your sentence.
Original: Snow doesn't melt on bison's fur.
Clearer correction: Snow doesn't melt on a bison's fur.
Why this is correct (step by step for an 8-year-old):
- The sentence means the snow stays on the bison's fur instead of turning into water right away.
- We use doesn't (short for "does not") because the subject is singular: one bison. If you mean all bison in general, you could also say, "Snow doesn't melt on bison fur."
- Adding the little word a before "bison's fur" makes it clear you're talking about one bison's fur: "a bison's fur." Both versions are grammatically okay, but adding "a" sounds a bit clearer.
- The apostrophe in bison's shows that the fur belongs to the bison (it's the possessive form).
Final simple sentence to use: Snow doesn't melt on a bison's fur.
