A hoof (/ËhuËf/ or /ËhÊf/), plural hooves (/ËhuËvz/ or /ËhÊvz/) or hoofs /ËhÊfs/ , is the tip of a toe of an ungulate mammal, strengthened by a thick, horny, keratin covering. The hoof consists of a hard or rubbery sole and a hard wall formed by a thick nail rolled around the tip of the toe.The weight of the animal is normally borne by both the sole and the edge of the hoof wall.Hooves grow continuously, and are constantly worn down by use. Most even-toed ungulates (such as sheep, goats, deer, cattle, bison and pigs) have two main hooves on each foot, together called a cloven hoof.he hoof consists of a hard or rubbery sole and a hard wall formed by a thick nail rolled around the tip of the toe. The weight of the animal is normally borne by both the sole and the edge of the hoof wall.
Ungulates are hoofed mammals. Hooves are enlarged claws on the toes. Ungulates are digitigrade; they walk on their toes. The word ungulate is from the Latin word unguis, which means nail, claw, or hoof. Artiodactyls are even-toed (cloven-hooved) ungulates - some of these include antelopes, camels, cows, deer, goats, pigs, and sheep. These animals walk on two enlarged toes. Perissodactyls are odd-toed ungulates (a much smaller group) - some of these include horses, zebras, rhinoceroses, and tapirs. Rhinoceroses and tapirs walk on three enlarged toes. Living horses and zebras walk on one enlarged toe.
