The plants that are currently listed as carnivorous are carnivorous because the soil in which they live in is too poor in nutrients to sustain them for long. They have adapted through evolution to trap and "digest" living organisms to completely sustain them. They require certain substances in the insects around them (such as potassium) that are not present in the soil to produce flowers, which take quite a bit of energy to produce.
