The even-toed ungulates (Artiodactyla, from Greek á¼ÏÏÎ¹Î¿Ï (Ã¡rtios), meaning 'even', and Î´Î¬ÎºÏÏÎ»Î¿Ï (dÃ¡ktylos), meaning 'finger/toe') are ungulates (hoofed animals) whose weight is borne equally by the third and fourth toes. By contrast, odd-toed ungulates, such as horses, bear their weight primarily on their third toe.
