The Jacobson's Organ - is a sensitive 'pit' located in the roof of a reptiles mouth. When a reptile flicks out it's tongue, tiny scent particles stick to it - and are drawn back into the mouth. the tips of the tongue are placed into the Jacobson's Organ, and the reptile 'analyses' the scent.
This organ is so sensitive - it can even distinguish if the scent on one side of the forked tongue is stronger than the other side !

The only animal I can think of at the moment is a snake. A snake flicks it's tongue constantly when the tongue goes into the snakes mouth it goes into the jacobsons organ it can then sense things on the air.
Hope this helps a bit
