Picture a peaceful garden scene: a bee visiting a flower.
An ant carrying a leaf.
A bird plucking a berry.
Watch out, though.
Sometimes plants bite back.
The activities of carnivorous plants may seem almost fantastical.
Venus flytraps snap their jaws to ensnare insects.
Pitcher plants lure prey into an inescapable pit, then digest them.
Bladderwort plants suck in tiny animals like a vacuum.
Why?
