Ever wonder why horses curl their lips up like they’re smiling?

That funny face is called the Flehmen Response! They’re using a special behavior to better analyze interesting scents.
When a horse curls its upper lip, lifts its head, and sometimes stretches its neck, it’s directing scent particles toward a specialized organ in the roof of its mouth called the vomeronasal organ (or Jacobson’s organ). This helps them gather more information about smells in their environment.

Horses often show the Flehmen Response when investigating new or unusual scents, other horses or certain treats to name a few. 

It’s their way of saying, “Wait... let me get a better smell of that!” A few of the horses at WWRA have been trained to smile when they see or smell a treat 😃

So the next time your horse flashes that goofy “smile,” they’re using one of nature’s coolest scent-detecting tools. 🐴❤️
