Hungry Hungry Plant

Carnivorous, or meat-eating, plants mean business when it comes to hunting. The pitcher plant traps its prey by using a deep liquid called a pitfall trap. If an insect falls into the ‘pitcher’ of liquid they are stuck because the sides of the plant are slippery or grooved to keep anything from crawling back out.
