- Discovering the Amazing Venus Flytrap. Describes carnivory and prey capture in the Venus Flytrap and leads viewers on an expedition to find this plant growing in the wild. Reveals the unique adaptation of the Venus flytrap and how it captures prey. This video answers questions about flytrap behavior and conditions necessary to grow Venus flytraps. It also stresses good conservation practices that will lead to preserving Venus Flytraps in the wild and why people should not collect the plants from the wild.
There are so few properly informative videos on the flytraps on UA-cam.. Thanks for taking the time to make a proper one! Really enjoyed it 😊
Lol. Carefully open the trap. Meanwhile its ripped off the stem
Thank you so much for this tour! It's wonderful to be able to see the natural home of such an interesting plant. Crazy to think that such a tiny corner of the world is all that's left of such an iconic plant. Loved it.
Great video! I was fascinated by Venus Fly Traps as a child and unfortunately I never got one. My wife, who is a teacher just bought one for her classroom. While doing the research on how to care for the plant, I come to find out that they are native to the Carolinas! Here this whole time I thought they were exotic and from a rainforest somewhere.
I have a Venus fly trap. But she is not wild , she is tame 🤓🤣 greatings from the netherlands
The local Venus Fly Traps send their greetings.
I'm their spokesman......
I don’t wanna go to college but this guy makes it sound fun to learn about the stuff I like
"Shameless unrealistic sensationalism" LOL that bit made me laugh pretty hard! Should've brought a giant fake flytrap prop out there to really sell the effect... That would've been hilarious!
Very nice flytrap habitat. I've never been to this location, but I have seen a whole field of pitcher plants at the Green Swamp nature preserve. That was pretty cool. Supposedly that site also has venus flytraps, but I never did find any on my visit. Maybe they are just further off the trail, or maybe I didn't look hard enough. You aren't kidding about them being hard to find. They really are particular about their habitat.
He forgot to eat Big N' Tasty.. He didn't complete it.. 666th cooment here!!
Not even one and I did know that 😂 but great video
I'm using this for my bio homework
Are there efforts to grow these out from seed and reintroduce them back into the site?
I think all plants are fascinating. Especially its life cycle and heartiness.
It’s like a little snapping stomach awwww! I love this groovy music 😂
Muy buen video muy informativo bien que lo traducez
You mentioned that it often grown alongside moss. Can we ID that moss, and do you think it is a typical companion species?
I'm sure he was referring to sphagnum moss. It's a ground cover often found in the same space as Carnivorous Plants.
cool , thanks
I find most of the comments here completely non-sensical. This video if fun and information
I hope that property has cameras and prosecutes anyone that tries to move the traps
awesome to see them in their native habitat
You can buy these online. Maybe let the audience know that they have options to own one by purchasing from a nursery
Hi, perhaps you can show a lite more of the soil composición, texture, water, Mulch cover, content, i grow dm IN mexico city and a really wish to know of the original soil for dm!
Hallo,, Please Mr vlog Venus Flytrap in jungle. 😁Thankyou
I lived in Pender County in coastal NC and there were some in my back woods.
'leave the plants alone'!!
*rips off one of the plant heads that successfully trapped its prey for food just to make a vid.🤨
The plant likely had most of the nutrients it was going to get from that insect. Not a huge deal to the plant
Its not his last super. Just onze leaf.
Looks like an older leaf. Like he said traps have a finite number of times they can close and digest. The trap he showed us looks like an older leaf since its a pale green-yellow.
I just ordered some seeds to sprout my own. Would they survive outside in Kansas?

What's yr fees for an international student for a BA? Do you offer Veterinary medicine witth pathway to be a Veterinary surgeon as well? With earnest interest from Singapore
They are naturally native to the Wilmington,NC, in a 75 mile radius. There are several places to visit fly traps in the wild.
Fayetteville NC is the only place where all three species of carnivorous plants can be found, according to my HS Biology teacher.
Right behind the High School, you could find all three of them in the woods, and near wet area for the sundew plants.
I think it's all been bulldozed for houses now, sadly.
1:08 look in the back ground lol venus flytrap!
Do they grow in the Philippines
Somehow I still don't really understand what makes this habitat as unique so the venus flytrap just exist in this small area. On the other hand it seems to be no problem to cultivate and even breed it in pots of peat, watered with rain water.
By the way, I'm from germany but don't got the money to come to Carolina and dig one out for myself. So, could you possibly dig one out for me and ship it to me ? 🤭
No!!
What are you doing harvesting the trap door from a rare plant in a state park yourself? What if everyone who went there did the same as you?
You won the prize....
I got a Venus flytrap because there are flies in my home and I was tired hunting them with my electric tennis racket. Since I got that plant there are no flies to be seen. It looks like they found my plant and fly off or something.
Since they can live 20 years and a vunerable species why can’t we just plant a ton in there native area
Venus Flytrap National Park maybe?
i hope you people down there are working to save thes uniqe plants enviroment
So what do they trap the most? Are they efficient or bound for extinction? So many unanswered questions 🤣
They’re very efficient but are a threatened species because of habitat destruction and poaching.
@@xxpowwowbluexx Thank you for your response. We bought a bunch that were on clearance and mostly dead from two different big box stores. I read everything I could about how to grow them and all their needs, we managed to keep 4 alive but it was definitely a struggle. We live in the 6b climate so once it was warm enough we moved them outside and now they're thriving! Certainly an interesting plant to add to our collection.
Yes i like and i love plant in your country
10:10oh！！！！
8:10 He might find a snake or bear.
I like sensitive plants more. They are easier to care for.
🙇🏻♂️
Cobra lillies
If there are so few of them please don't pick the traps to look whats inside.
8:33 😾👎
???????
Why are you taking the closed traps off wild plants? You know that's how they get their nutrients and that they're rare enough in the wild. Shame on you
@GAMP: Sicker than your average kigger nilller go propagate them and stop picking traps off them then.
Most of its nutritional needs are met via photosynthesis. The traps catch supplemental nutrients. They don't really catch that many bugs. They might be lucky if they catch one once every week or even once a month. I've grown pretty stellar Venus flytraps with just water, sphagnum and sun, I never fed it, and the area were I live isn't very buggy, except for gnats, and they are too small to trigger a large trap. Plus the leaf he showed us is a pale green-yellow, it was likely an older leaf.
I can guarantee you that he didn't take that trap off a wild plant. It came off one of his domestic plants. You can tell by the size of it.
If you grew flytraps, you would understand that this will not harm the plant in any way.
So you don't know about VFT?? Study more...
The least boring plant is coca
this presentation hurts its so bland and slow, its like mr. rogers on slow motion
