Man-eating tree
A man-eating tree can refer to any of various legendary carnivorous plants that are large enough to kill and consume a person or other large animal. No such plant is known to exist; the largest known carnivorous plant is the Nepenthes rajah which produces "pitcher" traps up to 35 cm (14 inches) in height and will sometimes consume small mammals and reptiles.
