Venus Fly Trap

Venus Fly Trap

Moores Creek is home to a sizable population of Venus fly traps! They are native to the East Coast, usually North and South Carolina. It catches its prey—chiefly insects and arachnids—with a trapping structure formed by the terminal portion of each of the plant's leaves, which is triggered by tiny hairs (called "trigger hairs" or "sensitive hairs") on their inner surfaces.
