How many toes are on a hoof?

This is a bit of a trick question!

Hoofed animals don't have toes in the same way that humans do. Instead, they have hooves, which are hard, keratinized coverings on the tips of their toes.

Here's the breakdown:

* Horses: Have a single hoof that covers their middle toe. While they have other toes, they are small and don't touch the ground.

* Cows, goats, sheep: These animals have cloven hooves, meaning they have two toes on each foot that are encased in a single hoof.

* Pigs: Have four toes on each foot, with the two middle ones being the largest and bearing the most weight.

So, the number of "toes" on a hoof depends on the animal. While it's tempting to think of a hoof as a single "toe", it's actually covering multiple toes.
