Invasive Species

An invasive species can be any kind of living organism—animal, plant, insect, fish, fungus, bacteria, seeds or eggs—that is not native to an ecosystem and causes harm. 


The invasive species can outcompete the native species for food and habitats and sometimes even cause their extinction.
