many animals have sharp claws that enable them to climb trees. Koalas, possums, gliders, quolls and phascogales are all examples of arboreal mammals equipped with sharp claws.

Parrots, too, have sharp claws that enable them to climb trees. Although perfectly capable of flying, parrots often use their claws and their strong beak to pull themselves up trees and branches.
