Do snakes really smell with their tongues? To compensate for their poor eyesight, snakes have an incredible 'superpower' - tongues that smell. A snake may appear threatening when it flicks its tongue out, but it's simply trying to get a better sense of its surroundings by "tasting" the chemicals in the air. Once the tongue is retracted, the receptors of the tongue deliver the information to Jacobson’s Organ, which is in the roof of the mouth.
