Why goddess Kali has elongated tongue?
In the photos of Goddess Kali, it is always shown that she is having an elongated tongue. There is a story behind that.
There was a demon called Rakta Beejasur. He had been granted a special boon that if a single drop of his blood touches ground, then twice of his replicas will be born with much more strength ! This boon made him invincible in battle field.
Everyone tried to defeat him. But because of his boon, their effort is going in vain. So all of them prayed to Goddess Durga to help them. Durga faught with demon. But even she was tired soon. There would be many more demons as soon as his blood touches ground.
Durga took the form of Kali. She started to fight. Now she is aware that demon's blood must not touch ground. For that reason, as soon as demon got wounded and started to bleed, Kali elongated her tongue and covered whole ground.
Since his blood didnt touch ground, Kali could easily defeat and kill the demon. That's why in the pictures of Goddess it is been shown that she is having elongated tongue.
