Fissipedia ("split feet") is a former suborder of placental mammals comprising the largely land-based families of the order Carnivora.[3] In some former taxonomic classifications, Pinnipedia is treated as an suborder in order Carnivora alongside Fissipedia and Creodonta.[4] rather than as a subgroup of "dog-like" carnivorans.
