The kudzu is a carnivorous plant that is feared by many citizens.
Physiology
The kudzu remains as an amorphous tangle of vines until prey is spotted. It then forms itself into a shape that roughly matches that of its victim.
Kudzu are carnivorous, and entangle prey to wring the life from them. The resulting pulp is absorbed into the creature's vines.
After the kudzu has finished with its prey, it deposits the resulting husk, grotesquely mummified into the position it was forced into inside the creature.
The kudzu reproduces by depositing seeds in the soil from the tip of its tail bulb. It may also inject these into prey as it feeds, sealing the victim's husk around them.
Habitat
Kudzu are found in dense forests where they easily blend into their surroundings. They occasionally creep their way into the city, where they lie in wait among flower beds and gardens.
Common Uses
Kudzu are feared among citizens, and some become paranoid of any thorny vine for fear it might attack them - this makes for an excellent deterrent for intruders, if you can safely coax one to grow where desired.
