Yes, elephant seals do have a sense of smell, but it is not as highly developed as in some other animals. They primarily rely on their sense of hearing and vision for communication and navigation, especially during breeding seasons. While they can detect certain scents, their reliance on olfactory cues is less significant compared to other marine mammals.
