Eurasian collared doves are considered invasive because they have rapidly spread beyond their native range due to their adaptability to various environments and their ability to thrive in urban and suburban areas. They reproduce quickly, with the potential for several broods each year, allowing their populations to grow significantly. Their presence can disrupt local ecosystems by competing with native bird species for resources and nesting sites. Additionally, they can contribute to the spread of diseases among other bird populations.
