This set of 31 claws and talons allowS you to compare their size and appreciate the functional differences connected to the different behaviors in hunting and eating.

The GHO and Barn Owl are in the top row.

Are there any surprises for you in getting to compare them?

Pound for pound, the raptors have some pretty big pokey bits.

Coyote looks close to a dog, they're basically the same size.

Edit: you're also more likely to interact with dogs' claws, as you trim them. I don't think I'd even try trimming a cat. You also trim rabbit claws, would be nice to see those for comparison too
