Instead of simply smelling using their nostrils, they rely on a unique organ referred to as the Jacobson\u2019s organ. It is a sensory apparatus designed specifically for the purpose of detecting particles of chemicals through the tongue. As a result, the flicking of a snake\u2019s tongue can be perceived as the process of tasting the surrounding air in order to analyze the environment.<\/p>\n<p>Given how responsive they are to such chemical signals, it would make sense to think that an extremely strong and foul odor would drive them away. It does seem logical since the smell will either overwhelm them or be nauseating, which means that the snake will not want to linger in the area.
