They are one type of carnivorous plant.

茅是一种食虫植物。

There are carnivorous plants here including these sundews.

这里有很多食虫植物，包括这些茅。

The Loureir's sundew has distinctive leaves covered in strikingly colorful glandular hair.

宽苞茅叶片上，长满色彩亮丽腺毛。

The sundew plant has long sticky leaves, which roll up after insects get stuck on them.

茅叶子又长又粘，昆虫被困在上边后，叶子就会卷起来。

The second victim faces off with the sticky sundew plant.

第二个受害者面对黏茅。

The sundew’s tiny leaves are equipped with a viscous secretion called mucilage.

茅小叶子上有一种叫做粘液粘性分泌物。

At over a meter tall, the sundew can catch bugs as big as dragonflies!

一米多高茅， 竟然能抓到蜻蜓那么大虫子！

An amateur researcher came across the massive sundews while exploring a mountain summit in Brazil.

一位业究人员在探索巴西一座山峰时偶然发现了巨大茅。

These traps can be passive or active - for example, sundews have moving  sticky tentacles that react to contact with prey.

这些陷阱可以是被动， 也可以是主动——例如，茅有移动粘性触手， 可以在与猎物接触时做出反应。

We'd also like to say thanks to our friends over  at Deep Look who provided us with some spectacular up-close footage of sundews.

我们还要感谢我们在 Deep Look 朋友们，他们为我们提供了一些壮观茅近距离镜头。

It was a lucky find, too. This one peak is the only known place where this sundew grows, so it’s already critically endangered!

这也是一个幸运发现。 这一峰是已知唯一生长这种茅地方，所以它已经极度濒危！

For example, a key genetic change in the  evolution of carnivory took place in a common ancestor of Venus flytraps and sundews  that lived about 60 million years ago.

例如，食肉动物进化过程中一个关键遗传变化发生在生活在大约 6000 万年前维纳斯捕蝇草和茅共同祖先身上。
