Of or relating to animals with thickly-haired or densely-covered feet.
From Greek 'dasys' (thick, hairy) + 'paedes' (feet) + '-ic' (adjective suffix). This is the adjectival form emphasizing the characteristic nature of hairy feet.
Dasypaedic feet are perfect for animals living in extreme environments—the hair provides insulation, traction, and even helps distribute weight on soft sand!
