Scenting has a variety of aspects to it. There is air scenting, when an
animal will stick its nose in the air and try to capture the scent and then
there is tracking. I've seen documentaries with wild horses and it looks more
like they air scent. They air scent to smell for predators, search for in
season females etc. That is different than finding something on the ground.
Although I've seen horses snort at objects that are on the ground. I don't know
if they are sniffing it or actually looking at it funny.
I would be very interested to see if horses can scent objects and
discriminate objects on the ground. I'm sure someone out there knows the
answer.
