Title: Life - Venus Flytraps: Jaws of Death - BBC One
Added: Dec 2, 2009
Author: BBC
Duration: 2:51
Description:
About the programme: http://www.bbc.co.uk/lifeHungry Venus flytraps snap shut on a host of unfortunate flies. But, despite its name, flies arent the flytrap's only meal. As long as its prey is roughly the right size and touches two of its hairs within twenty seconds, the plant will dine on any insect or spider that comes its way. Glands in the lobes then secrete enzymes that break the dinner down into a digestible soup. Ten days later, the trap pops open to reveal nothing but a dried out husk.

May 27, 2012 - it sucks it dry, once its caught the fly it realises digestives and slowly crushes the plant and its bones and eats it and drinks its blood and body water. i can only imagen how much water the thing will get when it eats a human body (not possible though) i mean think the human body consists of nearly 90% water
