Invasive species have the potential to extirpate native plants and animals, reduce biodiversity, compete with native creatures for limited resources, and change ecosystems. This has the potential to have significant fiscal consequences as well as basic changes to the coastal and Great Lakes ecosystems.
Rapid invasive species spread is a significant cause of world biodiversity loss. Through rivalry, predation, illness, parasitism, and habitat change, introduced species can have an impact on local species.
Invasive foreign species are the second most serious danger to biodiversity, after habitat loss, according to the World Conservation Union. Invading foreign species become predators, rivals, parasites, hybridizers, and diseases of our native and tamed plants and animals in their new habitats.
Wildlife may be impacted in a variety of ways, including reproduction and rapid dissemination.May decrease biodiversity by causing the loss of local creatures and plants. Direct risks include taking advantage of local animals and competing with them for food or other resources.
