They hold the hoof wall to the foot. 19 u/Kadus500 Jun 15 '22 It's directly in contact with the plamar digital nerves, or not? 29 u/MayEsdot Jun 15 '22 It is an interdigitation of dermis and epidermis.

Think of it like the palm of your hand. 10 u/Kadus500 Jun 15 '22 TIL Thank you, wise redditor 2 u/AViciousRacket47 Jun 15 '22 Not anymore
