Jaws of Death;
The Venus Fly Trap
In my undergraduate studies, I was responsible for coming up with a documentary of some sort. It could be over any topic what so ever. That being said, I was really fascinated with Venus Fly Traps. They are interesting little plants but to make an 8 minute documentary over a plant was rather challenging. However; I think it ended up having a great Nat Geo vibe to it. Well here it is and hopefully this will inspire some other plant enthusiasts!
Some interesting facts about the Venus Fly Trap:
1. They are only indigenous to one place on Earth, and that is on the coast of North and South Carolina
2. Nutrient rich soil and water will kill them
3. The traps are the way these plants gather the necessary nutrients they need
4. These plants are carnivorous
5. They are not tropical plants
