A '''Fire Piranha Plant''' (also called a '''Fire Piranha''' in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' and originally known as a '''Venus Fire Trap'''<ref>''Nintendo Power'' Volume 13, page 8.</ref><ref>Loe, Casey. ''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide.

Fire Piranha Plants come in either green or red varieties. Their original name, "Venus Fire Trap," is a play on the name of the {{wp|Venus flytrap}}.

The [[Frost Piranha]] is a counterpart of the Fire Piranha Plant that spits [[Ice Ball|ice ball]]s instead of fireballs.

In their first appearance in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', Venus Fire Traps appear as common enemies in most worlds. Their attack pattern basically consists of hiding in [[Warp Pipe]]s, much like regular Piranha Plants, and, when [[Mario]] approaches, rising from the pipe and spitting an unstoppable fireball in his direction. Like regular Piranha Plants, they can only be defeated with power-ups, and depending on how tall they are, appear in red or green. In some levels, Venus Fire Traps can spit two times in a row, and some inhabit quicksand instead of pipes.

Standard Fire Piranha Plants make their [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]] debut in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'' under the name '''Fire Piranha''' in the American English version. They appear in [[Rugged Road]] and [[Rumble Volcano]]. They look like regular Piranha Plants, but will eventually start spitting fireballs at Mario as he gets near them. If any of these fireballs touch Mario, he loses 5 [[Heart Point|HP]]. In battle, Fire Piranha Plants can either spew a cloud of hot ash towards Mario or more rarely spit out a fireball at him.
