The thread about a t's sight got me wondering about other senses. Does anyone know if a t has a sense of smell? I just a random thought.

Short answer - yes, but not as we understand it. They have chemical receptors that register different odors, etc.

One of my large T's ate a pre killed pinky. I was really suprised. She wouldn't grab it so I left it in there and the next day it was gone. Pretty interesting.
