But the animals affected are the ones in the area of the invasive species(s) . =D

How does Customs protect flora and fauna?

Customs checks help stop non-native species from invading and disrupting the native ecosystem. The invasive species may out compete the local species, or the invasive species may have no predators in the native ecosystem.


Why is garlic mustard an invasive species?

It is not a native plant and it crowds out native plants.


What harm do crayfish cause?

Native species of crayfish that are are a normal part of the ecosystem are not harmful. But there are several invasive species, like the rusty crayfish, that can kill off native crayfish and other crustacians. The rusty crayfish has a thicker shell and less "meat" and therefore are are not a good part of the food chain depriving the ecosystem of the nutrients from the crustacians it replaces. Invasive species also tend to destroy large amounts of water plants that further degrade the food chain. Also there is an infection that occasionally occurs in crayfish that can spread to other animals but this is usually a normal part of the life cycle and not neccasarily harmful.


Are campanula plants invasive?

depends what country you stay in; they are native species in one country, but may be invader species in another


How could the introduction of an invasive species to an ecosystem cause natural selection to take place in a native species?

Selection pressure caused by the invasive species entering the ecosystem. They would be possibly competing for the same resources with different traits that might favor one species traits over the others on average. The native species is a population of variants, so some among the native population could compete with the invasive species on a more equal footing. These would be naturally selected by being reproductively sucessful, ultimately, and thus change the allele frequency in the native populations gene pool; the definition of evolution.

Is a orca native or invasive?

A species is not inherently native or invasive. All species on Earth have a region to which they are native. If they are introduced to a new area, then they are invasive to that area. The orca has a cosmopolitan distribution, so it is native to oceans pretty much everywhere.


What eats Australian rabbits?

A species is considered invasive if it spreads into new habitats and upsets the natural balance. For example rabbits eat the native vegetation and aggressively compete with native animals displacing them from their homes. Invasive species cause problems in both natural and agricultural environments. Invasive species are one of the biggest threats to biodiversity.

What are species that don't belong in a particular area?

A species that "belongs" in a particular area, as you put it, is called a native species. I am sure that animals who find themselves in a non-natural habitat are called a non-native species, an invasive species, or introduced species. The introduction of some species into new environments can have devastating results - this is because the invasive species can eradicate necessary native species that are necessary to support a healthy ecosystem.
