Invasive Species
There are three traits invasive species generally have. First, they adapt to their new environment. Second, they reproduce quickly. Third, they harm local property, the economy, and native plants and animals. Invasive species outcompete native species and decrease ecosystem resilience. Generally, people have spread invasive species for decorative purposes.
