A bug flies by a plant. This plant has a pretty red flower. The bug smells something wonderful. So it goes closer and closer to the flower. Then it sees some leaves on the plant. They are long and green and good to eat,but look strange. They are folded together. The bug flies over and sits on one. (Oops!That's the end of the bug.)
This poor bug has landed on a plant that eats bugs!Meat-eating plants use tricks to trap bugs.
Some have pretty flowers. They took so nice and smell so sweet that bugs fly right into the plants. But there is no way they can get out. The plant keeps the bug there. It uses the bug as food. That's how the plant lives.
There are many kinds of plants that eat bugs. Each plant has a trick to catch them. On one plant the leaves snap together when the bug lands on them. Other plants have sticky leaves. These leaves roll up with the bugs stuck inside them,such as the pitcher plant.
One kind of plant has little hairs on its leaves. They hold anything that comes along so that it cannot get away. Then the leaves close upon the food.
You can keep a plant like this in your home. Don't worry. You won't have to catch bugs to feed it. Just go to a flower store. You ean get special food there. If not,you can just give it bits of meat.
