Hydnora, a genus of parasitic plants, primarily relies on its host plants for nutrients, but it does attract certain animals for pollination. Specifically, its flowers emit strong odors that attract scavengers and dung beetles, which help in the pollination process. Additionally, some small mammals and insects may feed on its flowers or fruit. However, these interactions are primarily ecological rather than predatory in nature.

Hydnora africana has adapted to survive in arid environments by developing a unique parasitic lifestyle, primarily feeding on the roots of host plants.

These adaptations enable it to efficiently obtain nutrients and reproduce in challenging habitats where other plants struggle to thrive.
