Several species of carnivorous plants are well-documented for their ability to capture and digest a broad variety of food, from insects and spiders to small animals. Here are a few cases in point:

Plants like the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) are endemic to the southeastern United States.

Native to Southeast Asia and Australia, pitcher plants (Nepenthes spp. ), have evolved specialized leaves to capture and digest insects, spiders, and even small mammals.

Sundews, or Drosera, are a genus of plants found in many different habitats. Their leaves, which resemble tentacles, are used to capture and digest insects.

The cobra lily (Darlingtonia californica) is a plant that can be found naturally in the wild in both California and Oregon.

It's important to remember that these plants may capture and digest a broad variety of prey, but that little insects are mainly what they eat. Overexploitation and degradation of their natural habitats have put certain carnivorous plant species in danger of extinction.
