What might happen to a native fish species if an introduced fish species that ate the same food was released in a pond?
If an introduced fish species that consumes the same food as a native fish species is released into a pond, it could lead to increased competition for resources. The native fish may struggle to find enough food, potentially resulting in decreased growth rates and reproductive success. Over time, this could lead to a decline in the native fish population, and in severe cases, could result in local extinction if the introduced species becomes dominant. Additionally, changes in the ecosystem dynamics can occur, affecting other species and overall biodiversity.

How are native species and introduced species related?
Eventually, all native species had to have been introduced sometime. So, native species are introduced species that have been in the ecosystem for a long time, and it and the other organisms have adapted to each other.

What is the species that is not native to a ecosystem?
It's an introduced species such as rabbits being introduced into Australia.
Introduced species can have important effects on biological communities by?
Preying upon native species competing with native species for resources displacing native species :)
What is a native sheep to Australia?
Sheep are not native to Australia - they are an introduced species.
Are donkeys an introduced species of Australia?
Yes. Donkeys are introduced, and not native to Australia.
Why are non-native species dangerous to ecosystems?
Sometimes a non-native species can be introduced into an environment as a way to address an environmental problem. Other times these are introduced by accident.
Why are the introduced species causing damage to Australian native animals?
In the first place, introduced species threaten the food supplies of native animals. Introduced species tend to breed more quickly than native species, so they eat more, often razing feeding grounds which would support native herbivores for months by eating vegetation right down to the roots. Secondly, many introduced species are predators, and native Australian animals have not developed effective defence adaptations against predators that are new to them. Introduced plant species tend to spread more quickly through native habitats, killing off native plant species which might provide the natural food of Australian animals.
Is introduced species the same as invasive species?
No, introduced species and invasive species are not the same. An introduced species is any non-native species that has been brought to a new environment, either intentionally or accidentally. Invasive species, on the other hand, are a subset of introduced species that cause harm to the ecosystem, economy, or human health by outcompeting native species or disrupting ecological balances. Not all introduced species become invasive; some can coexist peacefully within their new environments.
What are species that migrate or are accidentally introduced into an ecosystem called?
Species that migrate are called migratory species, while species that are accidentally introduced into an ecosystem are called invasive species.
Is the panda species introduced or are they native?
That depends. What area are you talking about? In some areas, pandas are native and in other areas, pandas are introduced. It depends on the location of which you are asking. They are native to China.
Causes of extinction in New Zealand?
Introduced species and habitat loss are the primary causes of extinction of native species in New Zealand. Introduced species such as feral cats, foxes, rats and stoats have decimated some native populations. Even the brushtail possum, rainbow lorikeets, black swan and cockatoos which have been introduced from Australia, threaten the habitat of native New Zealand species.
What is introduced species and what types of damage can it cause?
Introduced species, also known as non-native or exotic species, are organisms that are brought into a new habitat where they do not naturally occur. They can cause significant ecological damage by outcompeting native species for resources, disrupting food webs, and altering habitats. Additionally, introduced species can introduce diseases and parasites that native species are not equipped to handle. This can lead to declines or extinctions of local wildlife and a loss of biodiversity.
