This is not correct. Jews can eat cloven-hoof mammals. However, this is necessary, but insufficient condition for determining a kosher land animal. It must also ruminate or chew its cud. Therefore, the pig which does have a cloven hoof but does not ruminate may not be consumed. Cows, deer, lamb, bison, antelope, goats, and several other animals that have a cloven hoof and ruminate can be kosher (if slaughtered properly).
Because the law says if they have a cloven hoof AND chew the cud (ruminate) they are permitted to eat it. If they have only one of those traits then they aren't permitted to eat it. A pig has a cloven hoof but doesn't chew the cud!
Cloven hoofed animals are mammals that have hooves that are divided into two distinct toes, such as cows, sheep, deer, and pigs. These animals are part of the order Artiodactyla and are commonly found in various habitats around the world.
Fighting Back - Cloven Hoof album - was created in 1986.
Cloven hoofs refer to hoofs that are divided into two parts, such as those of cattle, sheep, and deer. Uncloven hoofs refer to hoofs that are not divided, like those of horses and pigs. The distinction is important in certain religious dietary laws, where animals with cloven hoofs are considered acceptable for consumption while those with uncloven hoofs are not.
220 species have split hooves. I was able to find 20 animals have a cloven hoof (One hoof) but i would assume that there are more. Hope this helps.
A horse or Zebra will have one whole hoof on each leg. Whilst a moose or deer will have two hooves as they are cloven hoofed animals.

Yes, cows have two toes on each leg and each toe has a hoof. This is referred to as a cloven hoof, in the old belief that the hoof had been split or cleaved from the single hoof of a horse or similar animal.

No, a knuckle is not part of a hoof. The knuckle refers to a joint in the finger or toe, while a hoof is the hard covering on the lower part of a animal's foot, typically belonging to cloven-hoofed animals like cattle or deer.
Some animals, like horses donkeys and zebras, only have one Hoof on each foot. Then there are goats, sheep, cows etc that have two(big) hooves on each foot - a split or cloven Hoof.
