Labels: text | screenshot | font OCR: RETRACTABLE CLAWS Claws that can be retracted (pulled back) into a sheath of skin. All cats, apart from cheetahs, have retractable claws. Retraction protects the claws from wear in order to keep them sharp for capturing prey and for gripping trees when climbing. Retractable claws are protracted (pushed out) by muscles, when required.
