==History==

===''Super Mario'' series===

====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====

In their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Venus Fire Traps appear as common enemies in most worlds. Their attack pattern basically consist of them hiding in [[Warp Pipe]]s, much like regular Piranha Plants, and when [[Mario]] approaches they would rise from their hiding place and spit an unstoppable fireball in his direction. The only way to defeat them is by using one of the many power-ups available in the game. There is also an another variety of Venus Fire Traps that can spit fire two times in a row.

===''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''===

====''Super Mario 64''====

They also appear rarely in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' in [[Tiny-Huge Island]] and [[Bowser in the Sky]], where they are drastically smaller than their previous appearances (or, in the case of the Huge part of Tiny-Huge Island, larger). They attack by appearing suddenly, then blasting a small fireball before disappearing. Like with normal Piranha Plants, they can be defeated by punching them. Larger versions named [[Big Venus Fire Trap]] appeared in the same game where they were just as large as [[Big Piranha Plant]]s. They attack the same and can be defeated with a single punch.

====''New Super Mario Bros. U''====

Venus Fire Traps also reappear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. They behave and look just like in their ''New Super Mario Bros.'' prequels. also there is a new species called Venus Ice Traps. In this game, Venus Fire Traps are always facing up while not spitting fireballs.

Fire Piranha Plants reappear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]''.

Venus Fire Traps made several appearances in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Piranha Plants with fireball exhaling abilities similar to Venus Fire Traps also appeared in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' though referred to as a '''Magic Piranha Plant'''. In the [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'' television series]] episode "[[Fire Sale]]", [[Kootie Pie]] kidnaps [[Mama Fireplant]], a Venus Fire Trap from Dome City, and takes her to her ice castle to warm it up.

In volume 9 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Mario and his friends encounter a Venus Fire Trap which attacks [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], and [[Yoshi]]. Mario then pulls out a [[Fire Flower]] to quickly defeat the Venus Fire Trap and proceeds to pull it out from its [[Warp Pipe|pipe]]. Several [[Monty Mole]]s are then shown to have been holding onto the stem of the Venus Fire Trap, but Yoshi quickly proceeds to eat most of them. Lighting then proceeds to strike the body of the Venus Fire Trap, along with the bodies of a Monty Mole, [[Muncher]], and [[Nipper Plant]] to then proceed to make a fusion of them known as [[Pakkun Mogura]].
