I watch nature documentaries. some of the strange sniffing actions that horses, dogs do is to get scent there. It's also why dogs sniff bottoms to get the pheromones.

Nearlyfit, if you had ever read or watched anything about snakes, then you would have found this question easy because the Jacobson organ sits in the roof of the mouth of a snake. The snake flicks it's tongue in and out tasting the air for nearby prey and the tongue then sends signals to the Jacobson's organ telling the snake that dinner is nearby.

Nearlyfit, your so right. Why do they have to be so sneaky it doesn't make anyone want to play or enjoy playing.
