There has been an absolute explosion in the number of introduced species throughout the world recently. These organisms, which can predate on or simply out-compete local organisms can have devastating effects on local ecosystems, food webs, commerce, agriculture, and trade.
Through this project, we will hopefully get at a better understanding of why introduced species are such a problem, how this species explosion came to be, and ways that we can possibly minimize or even counteract the effects of these harmful organisms.
Google Once you have decided on your species for your project and have gotten its full name and images from the resources above, you can input the name into google to find additional resources.
Global Invasive Species Database Can be tricky to use, but if you have the scientific name of your organism, this site yields a ton of useful information
