Hello, everyone. Welcome back to The Wonders of Mother
Nature again.
Today, we are going to visit one of the older jungles in the
world to learn
more about exotic plants. Do you know that there are plants
that must kill
an eat insects? Sound strange, does it? The pitcher plant is
one of these
plants that traps insect for food. This plant can be found in
our National
Park in Pahang. This plant looks like the pitcher or jug. It even
has a lid to
keep from the rain. A sweet, sticky substance cover the
mouth of the
pitcher. This substance attracts insects to the pitcher. If the
insect want to
get more of the sweet substance, it will crawl deeper into the

pitcher when
nectar is found on the bottom. The inner wall of the pitcher is
covered
with fine hairs who points downwards. This prevents the
insect from
crawling out of the pitcher. Eventually, it can die inside it.
Then, the plant
will digest the dead insect and absorb it as food. Well,

we have for now. Make sure you tune in next time for more
interesting
facts about nature. Have a great weekend ahead. We will be
back with
You at the same time, next Monday.
