Why snakes stick out their tongues?

Snakes stick out their tongues to smell! They pick up tiny scent particles from the air and ground. Then, they use a special organ in their mouth to 'taste' these smells, helping them find food or figure out what's around.

⭐ Bonus fact: This special smelling organ in a snake's mouth is called the 'Jacobson's organ'!
