When Plants Attack
In the wild, it's eat or be eaten.
Each living thing is on a mission to survive another day--including plants. And the measures they take can be downright deadly for those that come too close. Science writer and plant expert Rebecca E. Hirsch gives readers a look at a meat-eating plant that traps unsuspecting mammals, an African tree that enlists armies of biting ants as bodyguards, and an Australian shrub with prickly, poison-filled leaves that have been known to land humans in the hospital. But don't get too close or . . . OUCH!
