Snouts is the plural of snout, the projecting nose and mouth of an animal, especially a pig or dog.
The word extends to anything similarly shaped: the snout of a glacier, the snout of a teapot.
To have your snout in the trough is to greedily take more than your share.
In British slang, a snout is a cigarette or a police informer.
