The sense of smell in humans is quite good. However, when compared to most animals it is not superior. Animals have developed a better sense of smell in order to protect themselves from predators and to find food.

Many animals have a more acute sense of smell than humans due to having more olfactory receptor cells and a larger olfactory bulb in their brains. This heightened sense of smell allows them to detect scents over long distances and for a variety of purposes, such as hunting, communication, and navigation. Some animals, like dogs, have been specifically bred or evolved to have exceptional olfactory abilities beyond what humans can perceive.
