Just flipping through the channels and ran across NAT GEO, and a documentary about lions. Accepting evolution, I know my domestic house cat is related going back far enough, which is why they are both called "cats".
But just know they explained that the lions, when triggered by a scent of prey, will slightly open their mouths and squint their eyes and freeze their faces. I'VE SEEN MY CAT do that after sniffing me!
Believe me it is the same weird look I saw on the lioness just now, that I have seen on my pet cat! He does that too! He will sniff me, and have that look on his face with his mouth slightly open as if to say, "Dude, you need to take shower". I am exaggerating, but still.
I am sure whether detecting prey, or familiarizing themselves to family smells, it is just a way of processing information.
It is still a hilarious face to see on my cat.
On an unrelated note. My cat does not give a f where he sneezes. He'll be curled up next to me, I'll see the squint, the wind up, and like a Major League Baseball player winding up for a pitch, his head slowly turns to one side, then suddenly snaps to me and I get sprayed with cat sneeze like someone pulling the trigger on a Febreze bottle.
