But I eschew any flesh that walks on cloven hoof.

但我从来不吃蹄的肉。

And that feature is only found in artiodactyls.

而这种特征只存蹄类中。

Some very early cetaceans have this ankle bone, too, which tells us that cetaceans evolved from artiodactyls.

一些非常早期的鲸类也有这种踝骨，这告诉我们鲸类是从蹄类化而来的。

In other words, if Ambulocetus represents the transition from land to water, then Indohyus represents the transition from artiodactyls to whales.

换句话说， 如果 Ambulocetus 代表从陆地到水的过渡，那么 Indohyus 代表从蹄到鲸鱼的过渡。

Unlike Ambulocetus, it's not a member of the immediate whale family, but it shares a common ancestor with them, helping to connect today's artiodactyls.

与 Ambulocetus 不同， 它不是直系鲸鱼家族的成员，但它与他们有共同的祖先，有助连接今天的蹄。

And these comparisons showed that cetaceans are actually most closely related to a group known as artiodactyls, hoofed mammals that includes hippos, pigs, and deer.

这些比较表明，鲸类实际上与称为蹄类的类群关系最密切，蹄类是有蹄类哺乳，包括河马、猪和鹿。

And she'll have my tail cut off and my horns sawn off, and my beard plucked out, and she'll wave her wand over my beautiful clove hoofs and turn them into horrid solid hoofs like wretched horse's.

那她就会割掉我的尾巴，锯掉我的角，拔掉我的胡子，她会我漂亮的蹄（哺乳中，牛羊属蹄目，四脚各有四趾，趾端有蹄，中间两个最发达）上挥魔杖，把它们变成那种难看的奇蹄（马的四足都只有一个蹄，故称奇蹄），就跟倒霉的马蹄一样。
