   Claw
   Many dinosaurs were armed with claws on front and/or rear feet. These claws varied widely in length, shape, placement, and function (defense and/or offense). When alive, claws were sheathed in a horny, keratinous material much like our fingernails, making the claw even bigger, longer and sharper. Dromaeosaurids (Raptors) had a large sickle-like claw on each rear, second toe.
