Rat-eating Plant




To paraphrase Ralphie Parker's Old Man... " enough of this politics slop!"
The world is again a more interesting place because of this... a rat-eating plant!
That's crazy! Can you imagine it? I have had a few Venus Flytraps in my lifetime,
and was always amazed in a .."eeewwwwww" sort of way when they caught flies
and gnats.

So now they have discovered a "pitcher plant " that is large enough to trap not
only insects, but rats.
