Ungual: Every Inchie Monday

So rather than draw just a nail or claw, I decided to expand the definition a little and include the ungulate as well; they do have unguals after all (which my spell check insists I am misspelling). This opened up the field to any one of a number of different animals. So here is my offering of the week:
