Jumping Venus Fire Traps[citation needed] (also called Fire Jumping Piranhas[citation needed] or Jumping Fire Piranha Plants[1]) are a variant of Jumping Piranha Plants that can spit fireballs. They make their only appearance in Super Mario World and its reissues.
Jumping Venus Fire Traps appear in Cookie Mountain and the Special Zone. They mainly appear in the level Outrageous. A lone Jumping Venus Fire Trap is also found in the level Groovy, and another one is found in Funky. Jumping Venus Fire Traps behave a lot like Jumping Piranha Plants except that they can also spit two fireballs similar to Venus Fire Traps, though a Jumping Venus Fire Trap's fireball goes in two separate directions. They are rare as there are only seven of them that appear in the whole entire game.
