Can Snakes Smell?
Most snakes have poor eye sight and limited hearing, but have an excellent sense of smell. It doesn’t have a conventional nose, but they sniff with an organ at the roof of the mouth. This organ is called a Jacobson’s organ, which is found in a few lizard species. Snakes flick their tongues and collect scent particles for Jacobson’s organ. They stuck their forked tongue into a pair of holes in the Jacobson’s organ to support the sense of smell.
