§*=†~:¨¨¨¨ the moss commonly known as "blood ¨¨¨¨:~†=*§
£§*=†~:¨¨¨ clover" is a carnivorous plant native ¨¨¨:~†=*§£
@£§*=†~:¨¨ to northern eurasia. despite its name, ¨¨:~†=*§£@
#@£§*=†~:¨ it's actually a kind of moss. ¨:~†=*§£@#

*=†~:¨¨¨¨¨ blood clover is in its dormant state ¨¨¨¨¨:~†=*
=†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨ indistinguishable from regular clover. ¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†=
†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ when disturbed, it produces a thick ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†
=†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨ sticky sap that will ensnare animals ¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†=
*=†~:¨¨¨¨¨ that are too weak to move away (frogs, ¨¨¨¨¨:~†=*
§*=†~:¨¨¨¨ mice, insects) and slowly melt them. ¨¨¨¨:~†=*§
£§*=†~:¨¨¨ the plant then feeds off of the ¨¨¨:~†=*§£
@£§*=†~:¨¨ nutrients released. during feeding the ¨¨:~†=*§£@
#@£§*=†~:¨ leaves will take on a reddish tint, ¨:~†=*§£@#
@£§*=†~:¨¨ from which the plant get its common ¨¨:~†=*§£@
£§*=†~:¨¨¨ name. ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨¨¨:~†=*§£

*=†~:¨¨¨¨¨ you can sometimes spot bleeding or ¨¨¨¨¨:~†=*
=†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨ scars along the legs of bigger animals ¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†=
