- Ultimate fact presents top 20 carnivorous plants that eat animals. They defy laws of nature, they are deadly plants, they will surprise you with the way they evolve to eat animals and survive in extreme habitats where other plants can’t grow.
From the misty jungles of Asia to the summits of Venezuela you’ll find dangerous plants that are starved of nutrients ready to prey on animals. Here we present the top 20 carnivorous plants that eat animals.
1.The Venus fly trap
Also known as Dionea muscipula, the Venus fly trap is among predatory plants that will eat you. It catches its prey mysteriously without special equipment. This green monster grows in the humid temperate climates on the Atlantic coast of the USA.
2.Cobra lily
Like other carnivorous plant, it grows in places with very poor soil nutrients and other sustenance means. The cobra lily is actually a lily and not a cobra. Its name is derived from its snake-like appearance and the similarities don’t just end there, just like a snake it prefers its food living.
3.The sundew
This European insectivorous plant is also known as drosera. There about 130 species of drosera known to science. It’s easily noticed during the summer thanks to its small white flowers growing on long flower stalks. It has hairy leaves that release liquid-like dangerous glue and digestive enzymes.
4.Water wheel plant
This undoubtedly ruthless magnificent carnivorous aquatic plant uses a trap to eat small water vertebrates. The plants have six inches long free-floating stems and leave traps of about 2-3millimetres. The traps are attached to the air chamber of the stem which allows it to float.
5.Tropical pitcher
From the nepenthene class, the tropical pitcher is among the different types of pitcher plants that create some of the largest carnivorous plants in the world. The giant pitcher inhabits the tropical forest in Malaysia,
6.Trumpet pitcher
Surracenia is a plant that eats insects in a canning way. The plant’s leaves are covered with hairs that only allow insects to move in one direction.
7.Byblis
The surface of its narrow long leaves has glands that produce sweet juice and digestive enzymes. Similar to other insect-eating plants, plant eating insects and small animals are trapped here.
8.Butterwort
The plant absorbs the attained minerals and the leave unfolds waiting for new guests. There are about 80 species of these plants that eat insects in America Europe and Asia.
9.Brocchinia reducta
Like many others on this list, Brochinia releases a sweet smell that is irresistible to an average bug and that’s how this dangerous plant ends the lives of insects in Venezuela, Columbia, and it has digestive enzymes associated with deadly plants that eat animals.
10.Roridula
Native to South Africa, Roridula is a Simple carnivorous plant but with a twist. It has sticky leaves like the sundew but does not have digestive enzymes. The Roridula captures insects and leaves the task of digestion to Pameridea roridulae a bug species with which they have a symbiotic relationship.
13.Genlisea
The underwater leaves that look like roots are long and pale. This poisonous plant also has another batch of normal-looking green leaves that sprout above the ground, and are used for photosynthesis.
14.The Moccasin plant
Originally discovered in Southwest Australia, the moccasin plant has all the features of a plant that eats meat. It has a sweet scent that attracts insects luring them into its moccasin shaped pitchers where the unfortunate insect is slowly eaten and digested.
15. Dewy pine
Just like other dangerous plants that can eat animals, its leaves are modified to trap prey. The mucilage covered leaves produce a sweet scent that attracts and traps its prey. The digestive enzymes then break down the insects, and the leaves absorb nutrients.
16. Heliamphora
Though not commonly known, Heliamphora typically feeds like the trumpet pitcher; it’s just like the other giant plants that eat meat.
17. Yellow pitcher,
Unlike other pitcher plants, the yellow pitcher is easily distinguished from its distinct yellow-green color. Owing to its tall size, the yellow pitcher is among the giant plants that eat insects.
20 Philcoxia minensis
This poisonous plant with underwater leaves, about the size of spine heads, traps and digests its unsuspecting prey and uses the acquired nutrients as fertilizer to the soil.

wow! great video! i always was interested in these plants. but there was some that i did not know that was even real!
So nice of you. Great to know that you love plants.
Few of them looks like our sense organs, looks like a stomach.

Thanks bro
Venus flytrap is the most iconic of the carnivorous plants for looking like a gaping maw that has “teeth” and looks like it’s actually eating its prey instead of just drowning it in water. The majority of fictional depictions of “man eating plants” also seem to be based on the venus flytrap. That said, I don’t find it scary at all, just the most fascinating. The sun dew is the one that actually creeps me out the most.
This is how I sleep.
Yeah me too

Note taken: In a world with giant plants, when you notice that something smells super good, make a sharp turn.
"Carnivorous plants that eat animals."
Yes, that's what carnivorous means!
I’m so glad someone said because I was thinking it
Carnivorous plants that eat carnivals
Thanks Eitri
Omg like two people have said this already and I’ve barely scrolled down. 😂 by saying carnivorous he’s helping those who don’t know what it means and saying that it isn’t just plants that eat animals but a certain type.

@BaconGacha C' mon he's probably burnt out from so many compiled data about plants with digestive systems... cut him some slack! 😂🗿
Some plants: Use photosynthesis
Other plants: Eat animals
Genlisea: Is it too much to ask for both?
Why us this not the top comment 😂
Venus fly traps actually have little hairs inside that close when triggered :-)
You can see them in the video. So interesting!
true
It's like tripwire. They are so cool
Good to know about these plants. really an amazing video...
This was cool

Venus flytraps and other carnivorous plants: *"watch"*
They belike: hah! Pathetic human. **eat fly with their unique way**
Wow, the discussion is very clear and easy to learn about insectivorous plants
Honestly, Sundew and Venus Fly Trap are the main "scary" ones for me
They are also the most popular carnivorus plants
Agreed
In order to decide which plant is the scariest, first you have to imagine that they are all large enough to eat humans.
So basically all of them.
Chomper from PVZ be like:
@@blade9657 well the thing is I can just kill a Chomper due to how long it takes to eat
@@zay_rat8942 it can move while it eats

If you are being eaten by what you should eat you probably need to change the play style ~ (something like that) Tier Zero
Ehhhh a teir zoo fan I play the insect eating plant build here is a tip if you get killed by a plant remember that plant so you dont fall for it again also be careful with plants that look weird
I guess that should make sense, I guess I should play more pass-
Gets killed by another insect.
God-dammit!

We've been learning about these plants in science!
9:11 no it can't be used for house decoration, it needs *at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day*
Have you ever heard about windows?
@@steelbear2063 just light through a window isn’t bright enough for certain plants.
I thought it was a bit peculiar that the flytrap had a sales pitch...there are plenty of more forgiving CPs as indoor plants, like Cape Sundews! It always hurts to see the cultivated flytrap trades, knowing most people would just buy them as novelties and kill them within a month by not understanding their needs.
I’ve had Venus fly traps. I killed one by feeding it little pieces of bologna when I was younger. Didn’t know they couldn’t eat just any kind of meat and the salt killed it. What sucks is they don’t get bigger by feeding, they just spread and make more traps. Fun to have though. I hate flies and they eat them so they’re my favorite.
What ducks, you say... hahaha
Wow. These videos are amazing! This video has lots of plants I never knew! Nice job!
The scariest carnivorous plant I’ve seen is the one from Ice Age 3 😂😂
Sundew is the scariest. I mean it’s easily the most active in catching its prey when it rolls them up like a sweet roll.
the way you said some of these names made me laugh, great video!
sundews have always been my favorite, i had never heard of the Roridula plant though, thats pretty amazing
I read the video's name a "top 20 coronavirus plants" :DDDD
I read coronavirus as carnivorous. Weird lol
@@tooded87thesecond48 my brain is trolling me. These two words are not even similar xdd
😂😂😂😂
M-me too
I came here for this...i read that shit too
I wouldn’t be surprised if rare or even endangered insects have been eaten by these plants...
I mean.... yeah. That’s not any different than them being eaten by a bird, though.
There are insects that go extinct all the time..and they find just as many new insects..that they never new about..just as much
Beautiful plants and yet deadly too, poor insects
when plants fight back against vegans:
Lol
Lolllllllll
Imagine if the vegan teacher said "plants don't eat animals"
And she saw this
I have a collection sarracenias in my garden, the 50cm tall pitchers are filled with insects almost to the top, ~200 insects in each pitcher, they're also the only carnivorous plants that can survive frost below -10C/14F.
I also have some sundews (d. binata dichotoma variant), they are like like a sticky net catching anything that flies
I tried to have some cobra lilys but they die off very easily and are hard to cultivate
Wow very interesting show thank you for sharing your informative videos.
I've never come across any of the carnivorous plants.... would really love to see one
Go to the Walmart plant section. I just bought one two days ago from there.
They have venis fly trap plants.
"This plant seems to capture prey mysteriously, it seems to have a mind of it's own". You do know it uses the hairs on the inside as a trigger for closing.... And it doesn't know the difference of what triggers it, you can trigger it with your finger, a toothpick, anything..
It kinda does. Those hairs need to be triggered in a certain way for the plant to close.
The video mentions that venus flytraps grow in humid areas of the Atlantic coast of the U.S. They really only grow in a very small territory of North and South Carolina, and being from just north of there, I find it fascinating since most of the plants listed here are tropical and come from very far away, but the flytrap is the icon that most of us recognize as the ultimate carnivorous plant. I'm surprised the plant trade has not resulted in the plants successfully being introduced to the wild anywhere else in the world by now. My father's family has lived on the coast of North Carolina, exactly where the venus flytrap's territory is, for several hundred years, but he successfully set down his roots a bit farther to the north. ;)
The video also mentions that the venus flytrap mysteriously catches prey. Nothing mysterious about it, 3-6 little hairs that trigger an electrical response to close the lids, if touched within 20 seconds of eachother..
the video also mention that a plant was "epidemic" to a region 🤔@@adam9674
So you're saying plant all these around my patio during the summer!
Got it! 👍🏽
SO BRUTAL! I LIKE THIS!!
It's 1:30am. I didn't need to watch this but I had to watch this. No regrets.
Just don't rely on this video for a school project or anything. A lot of the information is straight up incorrect
"carnivorous plants that eat animals"
I have no words
Next up, aquatic plants that live in water
Same to me dud
I'm a student now I'm studying these activity thanks for this video
Plants: Eat meat
ThatVeganTeacher: That’s illegal
When he says "Plant" it sounds like a duck quacking lmao
There's some information that you might find helpful. The venus flytrap does not have a mind of it's own. I was surprised (even though you got a close up camera angle of it) that the little red hairs inside the pods are sensors. and if any one sensor is triggered twice within 20 seconds, that's what triggers the trap.
Jiiughggggggggyyyy
Iinnjjjjjjjiii
The vegan teacher def gonna try to cancel these plants 💀
Wonderful
Thank you! Cheers!
These are the type of plants that probably inspires sci-fi writers or creators to create the crazy plants that you would see on quote-unquote other planets c:
Fiction based on reality anyway wwww
Keep up the good work, great video!!!
Very awesome video 👊
I read this as "CoronaVirus Plants" 😂
“...the rarest carnivorous plant that grows on Earth...”
Wait- there are carnivorous plants growing OFF Earth ?!?
Lol i hope there are ones big enough to eat big animals. Unfortunately the tropical pitcher is the only one big enough to eat mice to rats
You should make more videos like this if i can rate this 10/10
This was a great video, Chomper (from Garden Warfare) has alot of relatives i love it👍🏿
Top 10? No lie, I only knew 4-5 carnivorious plants
Same
I only ever knew three: sundew, Venus flytrap, and pitcher plant
@@gingerkays7362 basically half of them was a version of one of them 1/3 of them was pitcher type related
Top 20*
The tropical pitcher is an endangered plant that prefer a bit cold

You heard correctly
But it is not true
I have no idea where he got that idea.

“ fun fact the cobra lily is a plant not a snake”
well no kidding Sherlock.
He’s just pointing out that it looks like the face of a snake
He goes on to say that it is a lily.

For the last one he said the species is "epidemic" to the Brazilian region, instead of "endemic" 🤣
Yes he made many many mistakes !
Me seeing that the trigger plant is a carnivore
Six year old me : touching trigger plants all day with my bear hands
Fuk up
They are so beautiful creature 😍
Btw where is Amorphophalus and Raflesia Arnoldi?? They both giant flowers
Anyone else had their mind blown by the tropical pincher because how it looks like that one Pokémon?
Thankyou
This is amazing
This world is full of wonders
We have a tropical pitcher in my moms garden its pretty cool every time i check it and see a snail, spider and sometimes butterfly
I'm planning on getting them but the one i want is 200 dollars for the seeds. Least i have my venus fly traps. And also there are seven dollar seeds of tropical pitcher plants i can try to grow.
Yall talking about carnivore plants like you are in an MMO game ngl lol
Cool stuff.
I was once eaten by a venus fly trap now im reincarnated in this world as a human

I’ve been stuck in quarantine so long, I thought it said Coronavirus Plants at first. 🙄
The Tropical Pitcher is also found in the Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn regions.
The moccasin plant is not carnivorous. It lures insect in to increase the amount of pollen an insect can carry. Otherwise a not-bad list.
Thanks for sharing
The Venus fly trap is cool
!
Very useful knowledge
Grashoppers: Just chilling, waiting for a prey
The plant: aight, my leaf will go BRRRRR
At first I read top 20 Coronavirus plants😬🤣
Venus fly trap is the best carnivorous plant for me.
I remember taking care of a trumpet pitcher! It was still young so I couldn’t really see the digestive water
As a kid, I actually found some variation of sundew on the island off the coast of Maine I grew up on, in a bog. Couldn't find them again the following year, but it was still cool to see.
The leaves were, if memory serves, about 1/4 inch to at MOST 1/2 inch long. Had the sticky tendrils and everything else to go with the sundew.
What
There definitely are certain species of sundew that thrive in the colder climates! Each winter they die back to a hibernaculum in the soil and re-emerge each Spring. Possibly a Drosera Intermedia?
