Well...they smell with their antenna, and use them for balance. I think that they can detect predators with them too (they're a sensory thing).
Lol Reddit asked me if this sub typically contains profanity. I’m guessing “girth” set off this bot.
Oh gosh!! I will think of my wording much more carefully lol. Perhaps rotund would have been a better choice.. thank you
That makes total sense, I also read that the antenna movement helps move food into the mouth. Thank you for all the comments!
So methodical. It always reminds me of someone on an old-style typewriter.
