As a carnivore, all living things and in particular also plants are called, which absorb some of their nutrients through the consumption of meat. What is common in humans and many mammals is a particular challenge in plants due to the lack of mouth, the impossibility of pursuing prey and a non-human digestive system dar. The digestion of carnivorous plants takes place after capturing the prey by clogging of acids that slowly decompose the animal and transfer useful ingredient into the interior of the plants. The prey of the carnivores mainly includes smaller insects such as mosquitoes or flies, but depending on the fishing strategies larger animals and even small birds can get caught in a carnivore and fall victim to it. The most famous carnivore of the plant kingdom is the Venus flytrap, which has paired catches. If an insect lands on these leaves and touches the delicate sensory hairs of the plant, the pair of leaves closes like a shell and captures the animal. Other carnivores are calyx-shaped and do not allow invading animals to exit the calyx via smooth outer walls. Supplementary nutrient supply to the carnivores via the root system is common, but plays a secondary role.
