The claws of the raccoons have several uses:1.) They are used for climbing trees for shelter and to find fruit.
2.) They are used for foraging for food, such as digging up worms and grubs.
3.) They are used for grasping prey and other food items.
4.) Along with their teeth they are used for self defense.

Which of the following animals do not have retractable claws Hyenas Raccoons Mongooses Lions?
Alas, this question still needs a definitive answer. Amongst the choices (Hyenas, Raccoons, Mongooses, Lions), there needs to be just ONE answer, not three. I know it isn't Lions and it isn't Hyenas either (PCH just marked that as Incorrect). So it is between Raccoons and Mongooses as the animal which does not have retractable claws. Any answers?It appears the correct answer is RACCOONS. I found this during a google search on mammals: "There are two suborders of these toe-footed creatures. They include the Canidae (wolves, dogs, jackals, foxes), Ursidae (bears, giant pandas), Procyonidae (coatis, raccoons, lesser pandas), and Mustelidae (martens, weasels, skunks, otters), all part of one superfamily that is characterized by long snouts and unretractable claws; and Felidae (cats, lions, cheetahs, leopards) Hyaenidae (hyenas), and Viverridae (mongooses, civets), all of which have retractable claws."
Do lions have retractable claws?
No, Lions like most other wild cats and even our house cats have retractable claws. Cheetahs are the only cats with semi-retractable claws and they also lack claw sheaths making the claws appear to be sticking out more. A few other cats like the Fishing Cat has retractable claws but lack the claw sheath, so it may look as if the claws are always out...
