Why do mammals hair turn white as they get older?

Um, snow camouflage for Protectors?*

It's not a certain age - but closer to a certain percentage of their
life-spans.

Several of my wife's uncles and aunts didn't show any gray in their hair
until their early '60s, or even later. (They're asian.)

My hair started going gray when I was 13 or 14. Irish background is most
likely why.

Pretty wide spread for "certain percentage".
