I dont think they "listen" with their tongues, but snakes do use their tongues for more then just helping them devour their prey. They use it to detect animals near by, sorta like a detecting device. But as for "listening" i doubt it. I believe that all animals have ears, some are better then others.

I don't recall so, and about the snakes, they don't have ears, they smell with their toungues, and listen by viberations. That is why it is more effective to jump near a snake to scare it rather than yell at the top of your lungs.

Actually, Snakes and reptiles (of sorts) do not listen at all with there tongues. They SMELL the air with there tongues. They all have some TYPE of ear but not what you would think like ours are.

N o , but a snake can sense the proximity of the prey by taste, but if you consider listening to my wife carrying on you would get vibrations on most parts of the body.

Snakes use their tongues to detect sound and air vibrations.

I'm not entirely sure, I know snakes can sense with their tongues but whether this is considered 'listening' is open to interpretation. I do, however, know that I could quite happily live in your backside...
