Women smell better than men - but you already knew that. They also have a better sense of smell than men.
So, what has the best sense of smell? Did you guess dogs? Wrong! Would you believe elephants? Yup.
Next up are black bears, who can smell food from a mile away (watch your picnic baskets).
Male silk-moths: they can smell a single female pheromone from miles away. Horny little buggers! Wouldn't you guys have liked to have that when you were young?
Then comes African giant pouched rats.
Finally, yes, a dog: The bloodhound. Their sense of smell is 10,000 times more acute than humans. Other dogs aren't far behind.
If I woke up one day and found my olfactory sense was 10K times more sensitive than the day prior, I'm quite sure I'd need to be placed in a rubber room. Or, maybe I could just put corks in my nose and duct tape them in place.
Thanks for sharing all that knowledge. I didn't know any of that info. Good to hear from you, hope your holidays were great. We're having a crap filled winter with white stuff and ice..Spring can't co.e soon enough. So glad Linda's moving too. Hate to admit it but for our age we need to make changes. Stay in touch and stay well
