,&,&&&&,&, 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, ,&,&&&&,&,
