dito del piede
Also known as toes
Toes are the digits of the foot of a tetrapod. Animal species such as cats that walk on their toes are described as being digitigrade. Humans, and other animals that walk on the soles of their feet, are described as being plantigrade; unguligrade animals are those that walk on hooves at the tips of their toes.
AI overview
Toes are the digits, or finger-like segments, that make up the foot of four-legged animals. Different animal species use their toes in different ways when they walk—for example, cats walk on their toes while humans walk on the soles of their feet, and some animals like horses walk on hooves at the tips of their toes.
