Carnivorous plant?

in #carnivorous6 years ago

Are there really any living creatures that can catch insects or have a carnivorous diet without their fingers, arms, or mouths? Yes, there are, and many groups of plants in the world can exhibit partly or completely carnivorous features. The special hunting techniques of these creatures, which demonstrate the success of capturing an extraordinary insect, have always been curious.

The leaves of these plants, also called insect eaters, have a structure that is capable of catching and digesting insects. They are the plants that have the most known insect-eating characteristics, such as eagle-grass and fly-trapping.


So why do these plants feel the need to eat bugs? Especially when examined, these plants are found to live in poor nutrient soils. They use the nitrogen that they can not get from the environment they live in by digesting the protozoa that they catch. Can not these plants survive without bugging? They may live, but their development is much slower when compared to hunting with bugs. In addition, this movement observed in plants is not conscious but takes place with purely simple turgor principles.


Carnivore is a term used mostly for animals, but there are about 600 plant types in the carnivorous structure that is now fed with meat. These plants, which are carnivores, have all the features and equipment just like the other real plants. These creatures, which can also do photosynthesis, consume insects for some minerals they can not get from the poor soil.
