Actually, it's a sticky plant. It catches mosquitos and stuff.

Walking through the forest not too long ago, I encountered one of these guys. It was actually pretty terrifying seeing them in person, although I'd known about them for quite some time, seeing them on TV and reading about them. Fortunately in my reading I knew exactly what to do about them, or I don't know what I would have done.











Good thing I had my Fire Flower on me.
