"This pitcher plant (Nepenthes rafflesiana elongata) has  a unique relationship with the small wooly bat. Instead of consuming insects like the chamber of most of its close relatives, this plant’s chamber provides the bat with a perfect place to roost during the day. The guano left behind by the bat provides the plant with all the nourishment it needs." - Symbiosis (mutualism) Mini Terrarium, Carnivorous Pitcher Plant, Especie Animal, Animal Facts, Bat Species, Plante Carnivore, Chiroptera, Animal Science, Unusual Plants
