    Some plants have evolved to be poisonous to protect themselves from being eaten by animals. When animals eat these poisonous plants, they can get sick or die. While animals and people can kill to eat or defend themselves, plants cannot run away from predators so many have developed toxins as a defense mechanism. Scientists study these poisonous plants to potentially develop natural pesticides for farmers that are cheaper than petroleum-based alternatives.
