  • Effects of Poaching, Habitat Destruction, and Climate Change on Nepenthes
    Effects of Poaching, Habitat Destruction, and Climate Change On Nepenthes Lucas Barron 4/27/19 Effects of Poaching, Habitat Destruction, and Climate Change On Nepenthes Lucas Barron; 4/27/2018 1 Effects of Poaching, Habitat Destruction, and Climate Change On Nepenthes When Dominick Gravine, and avid Nepenthes collector and seller, visited Borneo in March of 2013 to trek up the slopes of mount Trusmadi, he not only saw the endangered Nepenthes species that inhabit the misty slopes, but also the effects of the rapid urbanization of the local villages. He saw ‘palm oil plantations as far as the eye Dominick Gravine and his collection of Nepenthes can see.’ (-Gravine). “Palm oil plantations completely clear the land of its natural biodiversity.’ (-Gravine). “While in the local villages, I was offered many plants which were obviously taken from the wild. The locals see these plants as a source of money. The over collect and sell them to collectors.” (-Gravine) While climbing the mountains, he saw many seed stalks cut of many plants from people along the trails, which has a large impact on these plants’ ability to reproduce. Habitat destruction and excessive poaching is having a severe Nepenthes Veitchii 'Candy Dreams'; created by Dominick Gravine effect on plant species not only in places like Borneo, but also worldwide. Although many people deny human caused endangerment of plant species due to excessive poaching, reckless destruction of habitats globally, and climate change, Effects of Poaching, Habitat Destruction, and Climate Change On Nepenthes Lucas Barron; 4/27/2018 2 has a profound, and rather severe, effect on plant species globally, but especially in extremely delicate regions of the world, such as the Indonesian islands.

  • The Genesis of Rat Eating Plants.Indd
    Answers in Depth, Vol. 4 (2009) www.answersingenesis.org/doc/articles/aid/v4/rat_eating_plants.pdf The Genesis of “Rat-Eating” Plants Tom Hennigan Keywords biology, plants, botany, carnivorous, Mount Alexandria, Nepenthes attenboroughii, nitrogen, phosphorous, adenosine triphosphate, pitcher plants A menu of rats may be expected with coyotes and owls—but plants? As improbable as it sounds, there are plants that can digest rats and other small vertebrates. Recently, news agencies and websites were deluged with headlines that a new species of “rat-eating” plant was discovered by a botanical team led by Stewart McPherson.1 Apparently the researchers got wind of a story that took place in 2000. As the tale goes, two Christian missionaries to the Philippines got lost in central Palawan while attempting to ascend Mount Alexandria.2 They were rescued 13 days later and recounted seeing large carnivorous pitcher plants on the slope of the mountain. Their botanical descriptions were unique enough to cause McPherson and team to mount a two-month expedition to the area in 2007. Upon hiking through dense forests and climbing up Mount Alexandria, they spotted the fi rst specimen at around 1,600 meters in elevation. As they suspected, it was a species of pitcher plant unknown to the botanical community. They dubbed it Nepenthes attenboroughii, in honor of famed British natural history broadcaster Sir David Attenborough,3 and concluded that it is one of the largest pitcher plants in the world. Some measured 30 cm (12 inches) in diameter and were able to hold animals the size of rats, though arthropods make up the majority of creatures digested.

Drumthwacket has served as the Offi cial Residence of the Governor of New Jersey since 1982, yet few governors have lived there full-time to date. The mansion is also an historic house museum and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. The non-profi t Drumthwacket Foundation is responsible for preserving, restoring, and curating the house and the grounds which include, beyond the mansion itself, adaptively restored Italianate gardens; acres of mowed lawn; a restored visitor’s center; a large new vis- itor parking lot; some perimeter woods; and a private area with tennis court, swimming pool and bath house which have fallen into disuse.
