Any plant that has evolved to capture and consume insects and other creatures using sophisticated pitfalls and traps is known as a carnivorous plant, sometimes known as an insectivorous plant.
Carnivory has evolved six times in plants, across a variety of families and orders.
These plants have evolved to thrive in low-nutrient environments.
Two insectivorous plants are: Nepenthes - the Monkey Cups and Drosophyllum.
