ya, its like any other pitcher plant. pretty much it has a brim around it with digestive enzymes inside. the rat/insects crawl in to explore or just simply fall in and they cant get out and they end up getting digested alive.

Amazing, shows what little we know about Earth. Things this big can still remain unknown to the majority of society.
