Solution

  • Species now are going at a greater rate than at any time. While there are a number of causes of extinction, from habitat destruction to climate change, the introduction of invasive species has long been a prime reason.
  • An invasive species is one that has been brought into an environment where it doesn't live naturally and where it causes harm to the local environment, economy or human health.
