The Snap Trap


The Snap Trap


Known on the Venus Fly Trap and the Waterwheel plant, the leaf is divided down the middle and when triggered will snap shut in less than a second. The Venus Fly Trap mostly eats flies and ants, but spiders usually become victims when they try to steal an insect from the plant.

The Waterwheel Plant (Aldrovanda) is basically an underwater Venus Fly Trap.
