What advantage is it for a wild mammal that doesn't cook its food to have so many heat receptors in its tongue?

Mammals do not have any more heat receptors on their tongues than they do on the rest of their body's. Why would the body exclude the mouth from nerves in tame animals from wild animals? It would not. Burning your mouth hurts more than say burning your arm, because there are not as many layers of skin to protect your mouth like the rest of your body. Mucus membranes tend to be very open more sensitive and unprotected. Wild or tame makes no difference.
