nosing

She was out shopping recently when a store employee told her she had seen an immigration agent nosing around the neighborhood.

"When mami was pulled out of the cellar I had customers coming around to me and looking and nosing at what was going on."

“Now, look here, little girl, what did I tell you about eavesdropping and nosing in grown folks' business?”

The animal is poking her head through an aperture in her enclosure, nosing a thin computer monitor that’s displaying a livestock version of the “which one doesn’t belong?” game.

A night vision camera shows a bear nosing around her camp site.
