I feel sorry for that insect and hope it someway will survive! I have a similar plant at home, and these plants are designed to eat far smaller insects than this one!
i used to do this as a child, i have venus flytraps now, several varieties.... but i could never feed them an insect, i would now see it as bad karma ....i actualy let 2 out of one of my venus flytraps last year.... cut of the leaf and released them... out of trap.... only because i saw them struggle, if not its ok
Interesting how they know to instinctively close... when I was a kid, I always wondered if they were sentient.
( I know they're living, but plants are different from say, a dog... but I wondered if there was like a consciousness, other than just life-sustaining functions )
Heehee, also, it looks like the fly's in jail. XD /tard moment
Yer carnivorous plants really eat insects, spiders, worms, even little animals like mice! Actually most plants can be fed by spraying leaves with nutrients solved in water. Carnivorous plants digest insects thanks to enzymes or bacterias. Bon appétit !
Dude, venus flytraps are naturally insectivores! If you don't know much about this type of plant, go read some books and look it up on the internet Mr. Know That All!!

Does the plant really eating the insect? How can the insect be digested?

It secretes enzymes that dissolve the prey. Then it absorbs the nutrients.

my cousin had a few VFTs, most of the flies trapped usually got away cos they were often too big like the one in this photo
If the insect was too big, the plant would just gradually re-open and if the fly was still alive, flew off

The irony of that. A plant eating an instect. Normally it's the other way around.

It may be unwise if your room does not receive lots of direct sun because they love direct hot sun all day.
