ungulate
Animal with hooves
An ungulate is a hoofed mammal—horses, cattle, deer, pigs, elephants, and their relatives.
The term groups animals by this shared anatomical feature rather than close evolutionary relationship.
Ungulates have roamed these plains for millennia.
As an adjective, ungulate describes anything hoofed or hoof-like.
