Meat eating plants are
specially adapted to the
environment. They are
commonly found in poor
soil, so they can't get the
nutrients they need. They
have adapted, over
millions of years to the
poor soil they live in.
These specially adapted
plants trap and digest
small creatures and get
the nutrients they can't get
from the soil from the
creatures. Here are some
examples:
