Best Answer

There's the occasional story of an individual escape from a collection, e.g. a zoo, but there's more environmental impact when a breeding population is established. Mink escaped (or were set free) from British fur farms and, being vicious predators, have had a devastating effect on wildlife in parts of the country. Another example is the killer shrimp, which escaped the Danube when canals were built.
