Richelle:
45. The Basilisk was awesome. However, don't snakes smell with their tongues? Shouldn't the Basilisk have been able to smell Harry rather than turn away to follow the sound of the rock? I'm no snake expert, though.
Me:
Yes on smelling with their tongues. And snakes can't actually hear--they feel vibrations. In the book Riddle tells the Basilisk to smell Harry. I think the obvious reason this was changed was to add in more action, even if it was biologically incorrect. ^_^;
