It has been speculated that, as the blowholes evolved and migrated to the top of the head, the neural pathways serving sense of smell may have been nearly all sacrificed. Similarly, although at least some cetaceans have taste buds, the nerves serving these have degenerated or are rudimentary. The sense of touch has sometimes been described as weak too, but this view is probably mistaken. Trainers of captive dolphins and small whales often remark on their animal ’s responsiveness to being touched or rubbed, and both captive and freer-ranging cetacean individuals of all species (particularly adults and calves, or members of the same subgroup) appear to make frequent contact.

The area around the blowhole is also particularly sensitive and captive animals often object strongly
