Are elephants ungulates?
The answer above is only 1/2 correct and 1/2 incorrect - Proboscidea IS a definite order of the Ungulata family. Elephants together with hyraxes, dugongs, and manatees are classified as 'paenungulates' ('almost ungulates'). Although formerly known as 'sub-ungulates', they are now recognised as representing the evolutionary intermediate between hooves and claw-like nails. With new discoveries suggesting the fact that the paenungulates were even more specialised than the 'true' ungulate group, they are now firmly established within the constantly expanding taxonomy of the ungulate infraorder. Therefore elephants ARE ungulates.
What is the major differences between Artiodactyla and Perissodactyla?
The even-toed ungulates(Artiodactyla) are ungulates (hoofed animals) whose weight is borne about equally by the third and fourth toes, RATHER THAN mostly or entirely by the third as in odd-toed ungulates (perissodactyls) such as horses.Artiodactyla comes from (Greek: ἄρτιος (ártios), "even", and δάκτυλος (dáktylos), "finger/toe"), so the name "even-toed" is a translation of the description.[1] This group includes pigs, peccaries, hippopotamuses, camels, chevrotains (mouse deer), deer, giraffes, pronghorn, antelopes, sheep, goats, and cattle.andAn odd-toed ungulate is a mammal with hooves that feature an odd number of toes. Odd-toed ungulates comprise the order Perissodactyla (Greek: περισσός, perissós, "uneven", and δάκτυλος, dáktylos, "finger/toe").[2] The middle toe on each hoof is usually larger than its neighbours. Odd-toed ungulates are relatively large grazers and, unlike the ruminant even-toed ungulates (artiodactyls), they have relatively simple stomachs because they are hindgut fermenters, digesting plant cellulose in their intestines rather than in one or more stomachs. Odd-toed ungulates include the horse, tapirs, and rhinoceroses.Regards:Mirza Muhammad Arslan Azam
What is a large ungulate with fleshy snout?
The largest odd-toed ungulate is the white rhinoceros, while the largest even toed ungulate is the giraffe. An ungulate is a mammal with hooves, and not real "toes" When you think of hooves, you could think of horses or deer. Both are ungulates. There are two types of ungulates. Even toed and odd toed. Odd toed ungulates have 1, 3, 5 and so on toes. Even toed have 2, 4, and so on.
What is an example of a ungulated?
An ungulate is a hoofed mammal. They're divided into even-toed ungulates (pigs, camels, deer, cows, etc.) and odd toed ungulates (horses, rhinoes, etc) and a third group which includes elephants, hyraxes, and manatees. All of these are ungulates. The ungulate you are most likely to see on a daily basis is probably the cow. See related link.
