Do shrimps have tongues

Shrimps do not have tongues in the traditional sense. Instead, they have a structure called the "mandible" located in their mouth that helps them crush and grind food. This mandible is used to manipulate and break down food particles before they are passed into the shrimp's digestive system. So while shrimps do not have tongues like humans do, they have specialized mouthparts that serve a similar function.
