| '''Venus Guytraps''' are {{wp|Drosera|sundew}} enemies in ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'' Their name is derived from "{{wp|Venus flytrap}}," a real life carnivorous plant. Most Venus Guytraps lie facing upward with their petals spread out, acting as [[Semisolid Platform|semisolid platforms]] that can help [[Wario]] reach high areas. A while after Wario steps on a Venus Guytrap, the enemy grows teeth and closes up its petals as a mouth, capturing Wario if he does not evade the plant in time. While trapped inside the plant, Wario gradually loses health; to get Wario out, the player has to shake the [[Wii#Wii Remote|Wii Remote]] repeatedly. When closed, and provided Wario is not caught by it, the plant temporarily takes on a solid bulbous shape that offers him more altitude as a platform. This allows Wario to access areas that he is unable to reach. Three color variants of Venus Guytrap exist in the game, each with different properties: yellow-and-red Venus Guytraps take a few seconds to close after Wario steps on them, red-and-purple ones close almost instantly, and brown ones are always found in a closed state, making them completely inoffensive. | | A '''Venus Guytrap''' is a plant in ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'' which closes around [[Wario]] after a set time. Their name is a variation of the plant [[wikipedia:Venus Flytrap|Venus Flytrap]], much like the [[Venus Fire Trap]] of [[Mario]]'s adventures, although they function more like [[Piranha Plants]]. Yellow-and-red Guytraps take longer than red-and-pink ones to close. Wario needs to shake to get out. If Wario jumps on a Guytrap and then immediately jumps again, he can be on top of it, allowing him to reach high places. |

| Aside from Wario, Venus Guytraps can trap enemies like [[Bandinero]]s, [[Nosedozer]]s, and [[Turkeyjerk]]s, consuming them in the process. However, enemies eaten by a Venus Guytrap do not count as defeated; this is shown in [[Riverbloat Rapids]], where bringing the golden Bandinero on a Venus Guytrap and having the plant eat it does not complete the level's "Defeat the golden enemy" mission, and the enemy respawns upon leaving and re-entering the area, whereas golden enemies do not respawn after their defeat. Venus Guytraps also eat [[Coin Bag (Wario Land: Shake It!)|Coin Bags]] provided they are placed on the plant by Wario; in an area in Riverbloat Rapids, a Coin Bag is encountered on a Venus Guytrap, and the plant does not react to it unless Wario picks it up and places it again on the plant.
| | Curiously, one of the [[Treasure Chest|treasure chest]]s that Wario finds contains a Venus Guytrap seed. |
