Animal feeding plants in people appears to have a normal or surprising things. Plants can be predators to say, then make a lot of people surprised. So, the world aiming at people or animals can prey plant it? This question should be divided two to answer. First, can the existence of predators of plants, which are mainly produced in South Asia and Australia, pigs curly grass, sundew and produced in South America, the Venus flytrap and pitcher plant, etc. Most of these plants grow in tropical swamps, because these areas are often poor soils, so plants have predators in order to increase nutrients. Prey of these plants, there are two basic ways: First, students have to capture, or clip-like leaves, leaves two and a half can be closed quickly, the victim caught in them. Such as the sundew, which Yezi Ping hours of two open, leaves secrete a sweet liquid, if there is a small animal encounter insects on the leaves of the cirrus, the two leaves immediately closed, the insects caught in them, and secretion of digestive juices that digest it, "eat." About ten days later, digestion has been completed, the leaves re-open, waiting to catch the next game. Another, such as pitcher plants, pitcher plant, the leaves evolve into a bottle-shaped, colorful flower bottle, and can secrete a scented nectaries to attract insects and other small animals. The bottlenecks and long down the ramp with students bristles, as long as the insects crawl into the bottle can not escape, bottom of the digestive juice will digest it quickly. These plants can be predators, although a lot of people surprised, but they do exist. However, these plants are not tall, usually only two or three centimeters, but also the highest sixty to seventy centimeters high. They can only prey animals, mainly eat insects, larger species, can also occasionally prey such as small frogs or geckos. So people refer to them as insect-catching plant or carnivorous plants. For slightly larger animals, even small rodents, they are fundamentally unable to capture.

Terrible "food trees" legend This terrible word to me, since well-informed people who could not help but think that horror. "Food trees" is true or false? I must get hold of it to get to the bottom! I want to go to Africa, to Madagascar's tropical rainforests to go to find the legendary "man-eating tree." Jungle of "green monster" After nearly a year of preparation, I began with botanist Passman trip to Africa. Madagascar is located in southeastern Africa, separated by a strait with the African continent, there is full of thorns, insurmountable shrubs. After arrival in Madagascar, and Passman I rented a Jeep off-road and hired a local guide and a driver. We did find several carnivorous plants, such as pitcher plants and the "Venus flytrap", these plants often use bright colors and sweet Miye to attract flies, once the insects fall into the trap of their slimy very escape the body, but the plants secrete digestive juices dissolve. These carnivorous plants can be nothing but some small insect prey, only some of the largest birds and lizards, and their prey is a passive way. Obviously, this carnivorous plant and we are looking for the "food trees" is not the same thing. Day at noon, we are exploring the jungle, suddenly, we heard screams coming from the front, the wizard Mangjiao we stopped. We look forward to quietly sweep aside the jungle, I saw a body covered with small wild boar barbed ball, is struggling on the ground, blood stained the surrounding grass. Wizard guard said: "'Devil's Tree' in the vicinity!" We follow the direction he went and found one to be known locally as "octopus tree" exotic species. We carefully near the tree octopus tree. Passman After careful observation, finally found the secret of the tree octopus, original, its branches covered with fruit pods, the fruit pods are a number of years with the prickly fruit; its branches are very flexible, and highly tension; when running animal touched the branches, the branches will be playing over the tightly wound in animals, at the same time, above the ripe fruit pods will burst, that the fruit will be as barbed as deeply barbed shrapnel into the animal's skin; animals struggle was Chande more tightening, some animals have died, the little wild boar is an unfortunate victim. In fact, this is only "octopus tree" spread the fruits of their own way. This is what we are looking for "food trees" do? This "octopus tree" to seize prey and even though the cause of great harm can they do not eat the prey ah. Danger! Do not close the tree We went to a man named Anand Ravi tribal village, a white-bearded old man told us: "This is indeed the growth of a 'devil's tree', it can not only kill, but also long-distance kill." Remote kill? A tree will not run will not go there this trick, is this possible? We ask that we go with the elderly, "devil's tree." At first the elderly refused, Haoshuodaishuo, the elderly finally reluctantly agreed, but warned that we do not close it. In the fast-approaching "Devil Tree", the old man warned us last time: When we close, "the devil's tree", must not eat and drink. I picked up the binoculars again to view the tree below, I found there the bodies of several birds. The old man told us that the tree in the local dialect is called "Kuma Jia", did have some large mammals died in the gas under it, but most animals can rely on instinct to avoid it. "Kuma Jia" can indeed kill people, but they do not eat people. Some people from outside came across was "Kuma Jia" those left behind after the poisoned tree, animal bones, thought it was the tree in the meat and then spit out the bones, some travelers also "octopus tree" Some characteristics of "graft" to "Kuma Jia," the tree, so there was that terrible about "food trees" legend.
