What does perissodactyl mean?

The perissodactyls are what is otherwise called the "Odd-toed ungulates"; the principle example is the horse, which now walks on just a single toe, but whose ancestors walked on three or five. The other group is the artiodactyls, or "Even-toed ungulates" like cattle, deer, and swine.


Is an elephant a odd toed ungulate or even toed ungulate?

Any hoofed, herbivorous, quadruped, placental mammal in three or four orders: Artiodactyla, the even-toed ungulates (including pigs, camels, deer, and bovines); Perissodactyla, the odd-toed ungulates (including horses, tapirs, and rhinoceroses); Proboscidea (elephants) The hoof is dermal tissue, comparable to the human fingernail, that extends over the end of a broadened terminal digit.


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
