Guess what? Not all creatures have taste buds on their tongues or in their mouths. Many insects, such as the common housefly and butterfly, have taste buds on their feet to enable them to “taste” something as soon as they land. Creatures also differ in the amount of taste buds they have; chickens have the lowest amount at 24, while catfish have more than 175,000. Yes they do, I win! www.explorit.org/columns_00-02/feb18-00.html |

But with that few tastebuds, do you think they really get the taste of something? Or, is it that they can sense when things aren't good for them?
