What do snakes use to smell things?

  • Correct Answer: their tongue
  • their nose
  • their mouth
  • their eyes

Explanation: Most reptiles have good eyesight and a keen sense of smell. Snakes smell scents in the air using their forked tongue (see Figure below ). This helps them locate prey. Some snakes have heat-sensing organs on their head that help them find endothermic prey, such as small mammals and birds.
