Strepsirrhine prosimian primates (such as lemurs, lorises, and bushbabies) possess two "tongues".

Beneath their true, muscular tongue is a second, cartilagenous "tongue" known as the sublingua. This non-mobile appendage is used to clean fur and debris from between the teeth of their toothcomb, which helps to prevent any internal blockages due to a build-up of swallowed hair.
