I was wondering, can anyone tell me which toes on ankylosaur forefeet had claws? I assume that at least one toe was clawless, but I don't know if there are more.

By forfeet are you referring to the hands?

Yes, I'm referring to the hands.

found if you google ankylosaurus skeleton it brings up dozens of pictures of skeletons from which you can examine the hands in dozens of different images. I will make a point in a few weeks to check the gargoyleosaurus in Denver for you as well.

Looks to me like only the fourth toe lacks a claw, but I'm not entirely sure. Did ankylosaurs have four toes or five on their hands?

Thanks amargasaurus!
