A) with large clawlike "thumbs" on its wings, which probably helped them to (gramatically fine)
B) with large clawlike "thumbs" on their wings, which probably helped it to (use of 'it' is wrong).
C) had large clawlike "thumbs" on its wings, which probably helped them (looks good just 'to' is needed before 'climb')
D) had large clawlike "thumbs" on its wings, probably to help it ('them' needed instead of 'it').
E) had large clawlike "thumbs" on their wings, probably to help it - (it? should be them)
A is my answer.
