WHAT´S THE BIGGEST THING A 

CARNIVOROUS PLANT WILL EAT?

Some meat-eating plants are big enough to digest a small mammal. Carnivorous plants generally stick to a diet of bugs that they ensnare. On rare occasions, though, tropical pitcher plants—which drown and break down prey in vase-shaped traps that can be smaller than a little finger or larger than a football—have been found with the skeletal remains of frogs , geckos and INCLUDED small rodents.

That said, eating a vertebrate is extremely dangerous for a plant. The plant will digest meat takes a long time , how the hapless creature could fester , what would the same trap

But what about human flesh?Chowing down on a vertebrate is

 incredibly dangerous for the plant, says Barry Rice, conservation director for the International Carnivorous Plant Society and author of Growing Carnivorous Plants. It takes a long time to digest meat, so the meal could rot prematurely, killing the trap.

That's not to say that a giant meat-eating plant wouldn't have a taste for humans.
