It is an autotroph. It doesn't need to eat flies to survive. I had a venus fly trap and never gave it flies and it lived just fine with photosynthesis. Heterotrophs need to eat others to live.
Why does the Venus Flytrap eat animals?

Does a Venus Flytrap need protein to survive?
Yes, a Venus Flytrap requires protein to supplement its nutrient intake, as it typically grows in nutrient-poor soil. It captures and digests insects and other small prey to obtain essential nutrients, such as nitrogen. While it can survive without eating insects for a time, regular feeding helps it thrive and grow healthily. However, it can also obtain some nutrients through photosynthesis.
Do Venus Flytraps have to eat bugs?
