fidalgo19:Boom! First complete right answer. ![]() We got a winner. ![]() With respect to feeding, part of which entails stalking/tracking the prey, the bats use their ears, employing the mechanism called "echolocation". The equivalent of this in snakes is sampling the chemical footprint of the prey in the ambient air using their tongues. The tongue retracts into the mouth and is brushed against an organ in the roof of their mouth called the Jacobson's organ which then analyses the chemicals giving an idea of the presence or otherwise of a prey and it's exact location. : ![]() Cc: LionDeLeo. 1 Like 1 Share |

Snakes have an eye on each side of the head, giving them a wide
field of view, but they cannot focus them well and have sharp
vision for only a short distance.
Snakes lack outer ears and eardrums, but they do have inner ears
and can hear a limited range of sounds carried in the air. Certain
bones in a snake's head respond to sound waves and transmit
them to the inner ear.
A snake's tongue has few taste buds. It is used with an organ of
smell called the Jacobson's organ , which, along with the nostrils,
provides snakes with a keen sense of smell. The Jacobson's
organ consists of two hollow sacs in the roof of a snake's mouth,
each of which has many nerve endings that are extremely
sensitive to odors. A snake sticks out its tongue to pick up scent
particles in the air or on the ground or some other surface. When
the snake pulls its tongue back into the mouth, theseparticles
enter the Jacobson's organ. The organ enables a snake to follow
the scent trail of its prey. |

The auditory neurons of the snake actually create a topographical map which allows them to pin-point prey by the vibrations they create. In a nutshell it is a form of echolocation(as in bats too). cc Omenka |
