[00:00:00]This plant does not wait for sunlight to survive. It hunts. This is the Venus flytrap. When a small insect lands inside its leaf and touches the sensitive trigger hairs, the trap snaps shut in less than half a second. The insect cannot escape. The plant then slowly digests it over several days to absorb the nutrients it cannot get from the soil. It is not an animal. It has no muscles, no brain, no nervous system.
