One notorious imported plant in to Britain, is the Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica). It is nowadays classed as an extremely, hard to eradicate, invasive plant. In the UK and Australia, it is illegal to have this species growing on one's property (though it is still seen, usually by the roadside or in neglected gardens). Rabbits are on invasive animal that was introduced into Australia, in the 18th century with the First Fleet , to become a very serious pest.
Mink escaping from mink farms, where they were bred for their fur, have become a serious pest and they are very destructive to many native wildlife species.

It can either help it or completely ruin it, you probably have/going to learn/learned it in seventh grade.If you introduce some animals, they will completely take over the habitat, such as Snakeheads in the Chesapeake bay. When they were introduced, they completely took over the environment by rapidly reproducing and eating all of the fish. This is called an invasive species.
