yes they do, but they are embedded in their skin, generally they just have little holes in the side of their head, so they are easy to miss. therefore, their hearing is not exactly fantastic

I am not sure which part of the ear you are talking about specifically but the flap on the side of your head by the opening of the ear canal is called a Tragus. Then you have a lobe where the common ear piercing is done. The curve at the top is called a helix. I am not sure what you are looking for here so I gave you as much information on the outer ear that I can.

What is an ear?

An ear is an sensory organ of the body. It helps us to hear sound. The ear is composed of the external ear (which is visible) and the internal ear. The external ear or the pinna is a flap of cartilagenous skin that aids in the collection and direction of sound waves into the inner ear. The inner ear has several parts which is beyond the scope of this answer but the main parts are the cochlea, vestibule and the ear drum. Sound waves directed inwards fall on the ear drum and then are carried inwards in the form of vibrations that the cochlea and the vestibule conduct onwards to the brain through special auditory nerves and hence there is perception of speech.
