Pigs have two large olfactory lobes because they rely heavily on their sense of smell for foraging, social interaction, and detecting predators. The enlarged olfactory lobes enhance their ability to process a wide range of scents, which is crucial for locating food and assessing their environment. This adaptation reflects their evolutionary traits as omnivorous scavengers, enabling them to thrive in diverse habitats.
