Can claws be used or modified for flight?

Question

Hi. I am curious-I would like to know, can claws be used or modified for flight? I know they are conic-shaped but is using them for flight or propulsion possible? Can they be modified? Are there any creatures who use their wings for flight? Please let me know. Thank you.

:D

Answer 1

I can think of no examples of aerodynamic claws whatsoever.

<<Are there any creatures who use their wings for flight?>>

I can think of a couple of extant examples including roughly 9,000 species of birds and several thousand species of bats.
