    @@barrontrump3943 thing is the plant’s main attack isn’t always not very effective towards mammals, some of the larger pitchers can and will eat animals like frogs, rats and the previously mentioned treeshrews. At this point it’s pretty much a 1-Hit OK move rather than not being very effective. This plant basically has a move set that’s all healing moves and no attacking moves whereas majority of pitchers have an attack of some form, even the smallest ones do have a 1-Hit KO towards bug times it’s still something.

    Better though. Digesting a mammal takes time and runs the risk of damage to the leaf releasing the dead catch, and its nutrients. Mammals are also, generally, smart and after a close call or two a lucky one will start destroying the trap before eating. It's also a one and done massive HP boost Mammal crap is full of readily available nutrients, from its passage through the digestive track, which can almost immediately be taken up by the leaf. There is no massive loss should one leaf be destroyed. You also see that the leaf is shaped to prevent a mammal falling in. It's a return customer who has no reason to destroy the leaf so the plant gets a continuous boost of nutrients which it can assimilate easily

Think about how much we have been able to evolve dogs over the last couple centuries (both physically and behaviorally). We've been able to "evolve" dogs that were essentially wolf-life all the way down to Chihuahuas in the blink of an eye. Hundreds of years (a blink of an eye) pales in comparison to the millions and millions of years that life has had to evolve. The variety and intricacy in nature is not very surprising at all when you realize the timescales we're talking about.

    This isn't even the only carnivorous plant to do that. Sundews have tentacles with dew-covered hairs that act as a sensory trap. If it feels something brush against the "dew," it closes it's tentacle around it's prey, trapping it in what's actually a sticky digestive fluid. Bladderwort has thousands of tiny empty "bladders" submerged beneath the water. Each bladder is surrounded by small reactive hairs that, if triggered, quickly open the mouth of said bladder. The water displacement acts like a vacuum, sucking it's victim inside and quickly closing the bladder _trap_ behind it. The bladderwort then releases enzymes into the full bladder, using the water to digest it's victim alive.

    I saw this at an expedition as a child and was fascinated with it. Mainly because it looks like small container and children love things like that. I asked my parents for the name and they shrugged. "Kantung Semar" they said. It's a local name. That's the first time I've ever seen it. I saw it a lot of times growing up in many kind of events. It's always fascinating to look at. Just like any other exotic insectivore flowers down here.

    Insects, like vertebrates, actually launch with a jump, which would be difficult on a slippery surface. Moreover, canceling velocity from a fall once it starts would be tough. To brake from a free fall in such a short distance would take a lot of thrust, as much agility as flies have that's a lot of acceleration.

    When I was little I went fishing with my dad, we found a lot of pitcher plant (nepenthes). My dad told me to pick about 100 of them, he said he would show me something great. We took it to my grandmother's house and he told me to give this plant to my grandmother. Apparently, after washing this semar bag, you give 1-2 tablespoons of rice inside and boil it until it's cooked, the taste is incredibly delicious. I grew up in South Kalimantan or S. Borneo, Indonesia. There are a lot of swamps there, this plant is often found in my area, but now it's starting to be rarely seen.

    These things grow in abundance on the isolated tops of the plateaus in South America called; "Tepuis." (Where the world's largest waterfall "Angel Falls," is located.) Because the tops of the Tepuis are flat, separated by the Amazonian Jungle below by sheer cliffs nearly 1,000 meters high, they're subjected to almost continuous year-round rainfall, which washes almost all of the natural soil deposits away entirely. Leaving nothing behind for the plant life to cling on to besides rock. Because it's nearly impossible for the native vegetation to extract the necessary nutrients from rock, almost all of the plant life found atop the Tepuis are separate and distinct species of carnivorous plants, each Tepuis in the vast mountain range within the three Countries who's borders converge in the region having their own unique variations of plants and animal life. Each species found nowhere else in the World, and more closely related genetically to one another and the corresponding areas in sub-saharan Africa, (from the millions of years ago when the two continents were joined as one,) than any of the species living in the jungle 900 feet below the sheer cliffs surrounding the summits. It's incredibly fascinating. 👍
