	Artiodactyla - LoveToKnow 1911
		Artiodactyla date from the Eocene period, when they appear to have been less numerous than the Perissodactyla, although at the present day they are immeasurably ahead of that group, and form indeed the dominant ungulates.
		The primitive Artiodactyla thus probably had the typical number (44) of incisor, canine and molar teeth, brachyodont molars, conical odontoid process, four distinct toes on each foot, with metacarpal, metatarsal and all the tarsal bones distinct, and no frontal appendages.
		The last section of the Artiodactyla is that of the Suina, represented at the present day by the pigs (Suidae), and the hippopotamuses (Hippopotamidae), and in past times by the Anthracotheriidae, in which may probably be included the Elotheriidae.

	Artiodactyla
		Artiodactyla is an order of even-toed MAMMALS that walk on their toenails (unguis).
		The order Artiodactyla contains 195 species of predominantly herbivorous mammals grouped into families that contain pigs, peccaries, hippos, camels, mouse deer, DEER, giraffes, PRONGHORNS, and the family that contains cattle, sheep, goats and BISON.
		The feet are the characteristic feature of the group; the axis of leg support passes between the third and fourth digits, which support most of the animal's weight.

	ADW: Artiodactyla: Information
		Within the order can be found some of the fastest-running mammals, but the Artiodactyla also includes relatively slow and cumbersome species such as pigs and hippos.
		Artiodactyls are paraxonic, that is, the plane of symmetry of each foot passes between the third and fourth digits.
		This pattern has earned them their name, Artiodactyla, which means "even-toed." Artiodactyls stand in contrast to the "odd-toed ungulates," the Perissodactyla, in which the plane of symmetry runs down the third toe.
