Rabbits - They spread rapidly and ate the vegetation the native species needed much more quickly than the native animals did. Rabbits have increased desertification in Australia, and they have destroyed the habitat of animals such as the bilby, leading to the bilby's endangerment.
Foxes - Prior to the introduction of the European red fox, there were few native predators of Australia's wildlife. The fox has contributed directly to the loss of many species.
Domesticated dogs and cats - As a result of domesticated dogs and cats, there is now an enormous population of wild dogs and feral cats which are just as damaging to the native wildlife, resulting in the extinction and endangerment of many native species.
Cane toads - These have spread rapidly from the northern regions, heading further and further south every year. Cane toads are toxic to native predators. The spotted quoll, for example, has faced severe endangerment because they eat cane toads, and die from the poison. Cane toads also feed on native frogs.
Camels - Camels were brought over to use in some desert explorations and in the establishment of Afghan trade routes across central Australia. Many of these animals escaped, and there are now literally millions of feral camels in the deserts, feeding off native grasses and vegetation, and destroying the habitat of many native species.
Stock animals such as pigs, goats, horses, etc - Again, these animals are heavy-hooved creatures that destroy the environment and feed on native animals' food supplies. Pigs are a direct threat to native animals, as they will eat almost anything they can catch, as well as their prey's food sources.
Dingoes - Dingoes are not native to Australia, but arrived some time after the Aborigines. Dingoes resulted in the extinction of the Thylacine (Tasmanian Tiger) and the Tasmanian Devil from the mainland, because the competition for food was too great.
