What mammals have claws?

Many mammals have claws, but not all! Here's a breakdown:

Mammals with Claws:

* Carnivores: Most carnivores, like lions, tigers, bears, cats, dogs, weasels, and foxes have claws. These are used for hunting, defense, and climbing.

* Primates: Some primates, like monkeys, have claws, but most have nails.

* Rodents: Most rodents have claws for digging, climbing, and holding food.

* Insectivores: Insectivores, like shrews and moles, have claws for digging and catching prey.

* Xenarthrans: Xenarthrans like armadillos and sloths use their claws for digging and climbing.

* Marsupials: Many marsupials, like kangaroos and wombats, have claws.

Mammals without Claws:

* Cetaceans: Whales and dolphins have flippers, not claws.

* Sirenians: Manatees and dugongs have flippers, not claws.

* Proboscideans: Elephants have trunks, not claws.

* Perissodactyls: Horses, rhinoceroses, and zebras have hooves, not claws.

* Artiodactyls: Cows, pigs, deer, and sheep have hooves, not claws.

A few exceptions:

* Some primates, like aye-ayes, have claws on their middle fingers, which they use to tap on trees and locate insects.

* Some bats, like the vampire bat, have claws on their thumbs, which they use to cling to their prey.
