    You did that wrong I think. I only see a search for “do”. Just fyi.

    Also when I ask google “do turtles have noses” the first result is that they do. Link from Seaworld.

    I’m just saying, if you’re going to claim bullshit on something have some decency to back up the claim.

    A sea turtle opens its mouth slightly and draws in water through the nose. It then immediately empties the water out again through the mouth. Pulsating movements of the throat are thought to be associated with smelling

      That’s the point. He says it is bullshit, because turtles HAVE noses and not those weird sensors the original commentor was describing.

        I did not expect to get into an internet fight over turtle noses today, but here we are. :)

        There was another site I saw in my search that claimed they do have sensors under their chin.

        I am not an expert, but a quick google search will verify the claims made in the OP.

        And I’m done with turtle noses for the day.
