When Plants Become Predators


October 6, 2026
LIVE at 3:00 PM ET / 2:00 PM CT / 1:00 PM MT / 12:00 PM PT


Presented by Melissa Silva

We usually think of plants as food for animals—but what happens when the roles are reversed? Expedition Leader and marine biologist Melissa Silva explores the world of carnivorous plants, from Venus flytraps and pitcher plants to butterworts and bladderworts. Discover where these unusual plants live, how they lure, trap and digest insects and tiny aquatic invertebrates, and the ingenious adaptations that help them survive in some of the world’s most nutrient-poor habitats.
