Claws are sharp, curved nails found on the digits of some animals, primarily used for grasping and tearing prey, climbing, or for display and defense. Often associated with predatory animals, claws are an essential tool in their survival, allowing them to efficiently capture and process food. Claws have varying shapes and sizes depending on the animal and its specific needs; for instance, birds of prey have talons that are adapted for catching and holding onto their prey, while domestic cats have retractable claws that help them climb and hunt. Claws are made of keratin, the same substance as human nails, and they continuously grow, necessitating regular use or maintenance to prevent overgrowth.
