Zoro undergoes training in sniffing. Zoro is able to detect objects that contain human odor and he is then able to track or search for them. “For example, if a suspect was driving down the highway and threw a piece of evidence [like a gun] out the window into a field, Zoro could search the field and locate the evidence because it smells of human odor,” Petit said.
