TRAP DOOR OCTOPUS PLANT
This carnivorous plant lives on the border of deserts and the forest of death. Its 40-45 ft long and make a 15 ft deep hole. Beware it can grab you with it's tentacles. It covers it's hole with leafs and tree sap. It loves heat but needs water and moister from the forest. When Trap Door Octopus Plant's are a baby they use ground water to find a hole and plant their roots in the ground and stay there for the rest of it's life. It uses ground water to breath.

ReplyDeleteSneaky little feller with that leaf trap!!!
ReplyDeleteFalling into that trap would ruin my day. So I guess the lesson here is: "Enter the death forest at your own risk." I think there should be some sort of sign at the entrance.
