[University of Maryland researchers unlock mystery of a third olfactory system](http://www.physorg.com/news107613674.html)  
“It allows animals to detect food and determine that food’s quality, it provides social information like sexual status about other animals, and it can warn an animal when a predator is present. Because of the great similarities between humans and animals when it comes to the sense of smell, the more we learn about the building blocks of the system, the more we will learn about how odors affect our lives.”
